From another poster on the Delta MEC Facebook page:
"HIPAA laws only apply to "covered entities." Delta is not so YOU can give them any information you want to or the contract REQUIRES you to. What Delta can't do is get your records directly from your healh provider as they are a "covered entity." HIPAA does not apply to Delta at all."
Care to interpret what that means in practical terms?
