CSA seems more about drug control, not privacy.

I thought the CSA was more about the regulation of controlled substances, but I guess it could relate to the context. Still, I lean towards HIPAA being the right answer here.

This scenario seems to violate patient privacy laws, which I think points to HIPAA. I remember practicing questions about confidentiality breaches, and this feels like one of them.

I feel like we covered something similar in class about the consequences of discussing patient information. I think it might be HIPAA, but I could be mixing it up with another act.

I remember studying about patient confidentiality and how important it is to protect that information. I think this relates to HIPAA, but I'm not entirely sure.
