Medical Law & Ethics A 24 24 Instructions Medical laws and ethics are crucial in this field. Laws are implemented not only to ensure proper medical services are provided and to secure patient's rights, but also to protect the provider and the staff. Though laws can be subject to change, they still cover a vast variety of situations set forth for everyone involved. An example of what the laws cover would be providing accurate and appropriate medical care, professionalism, communication, and security of patient information, who owns and has access to patient medical records, and to whom and where reports can be submitted if medical malpractice is suspected. For this discussion assignment, you will be given two scenarios; you should base your answer on your understanding and research of medical laws and ethics. Your initial post should be 75-100 words. Once you submit your response, you will be able to see other students' submissions and then you must comment on two other students' posts in complete sentences. . Scenario 1: A close friend of yours has asked you to look up a patient who happens to be an ex-partner of theirs and they know is one of your patients. Your friend is requesting visit dates and a medical history of your patient. How would you respond? What laws would you break and what would be the consequences if you complied with your friends' request? Scenario 2: You notice the provider you are working for has started to show up late to see patients, they seem tired, blurry eyed, and not as well-groomed as they once were. Several mistakes, such as writing prescriptions with errors and over-prescribing controlled medications, have been made and your provider has asked you to document in patient charts services that were not completed. How would you handle this situation, who could you report to or contact? What could be the impact on the patient(s)? Remember to reference where you obtained your information.
