Abstract
ADAW has obtained some of the comments on the 42 CFR Part 2 Notice of Preliminary Rulemaking (NPRM) submitted to the Office of Civil Rights (OCR) of the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) last month (see https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/adaw.33678, https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/adaw.33684, https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/adaw.33628, https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/adaw.33661). The comments are in response to the HHS proposal to change the federal rules regarding confidentiality of substance use disorder (SUD) patient records. Since 2010, the rules, known now as Part 2, have been under threat due to electronic health records, which make obtaining written, individualized consent from patients for release of the records inconvenient (ADAW has written more than 100 articles on this topic, go to the website for more).
