Abstract

Commonly, judicial authorities wish to obtain parts from the medical records which are covered by medical confidentiality. The law describes the search for a balance between all interests: the interest of the patient, the social interest and public interest. The physician, requested by the authorities to provide medical records, must counterpose the confidentiality rule in front of irregular claims of medical information, especially oral claims. Apart from a judicial seizure or requisition, no document should be delivered directly to a judge or any member of the judicial police.
