[Bryant, Connie]

We have an EMS agency.  This may have been discussed previously, but I am new to this list.  What is your opinion on giving the media a pager and marking certain calls as automatic media pages?  The pages do not include the patient’s name, but sometime include the address.  It is the same information that is said over the air.  Would this be considered creating an incidental disclosure and would not be acceptable?     Connie Bryant Compliance Officer Montgomery County Hospital District 936-523-5016  Metro 936-441-8813 ext 5016 Cell 936-537-9306 [EMAIL PROTECTED]     --- The WEDI SNIP listserv to which you are subscribed is not moderated.
