At my current place of employment there are quite a few things occurring that I see as HIPPA violations. For instance, giving lab results to a patient in the middle of the hallway where anyone can hear. I work in the college setting and many students have roomates or live with their parents. I also think that leaving a message on an answering machine or with a roomate about a patients lab results are again HIPPA violations. I have spoken to my supervisor and her "hands are tied". Her direct superior won't allow her to address the particular individual who is violating confidentiality because "she has been here for many years and we just can't change everything for her, this is the way we've always done it." What can I do? Are these HIPPA violations? Can I file an annonymous complaint? How? Thank you, tirednurse
