I don’t agree.

Protected Health Information, PHI, includes anything used in a medical context that can identify patients. Although it doesn’t explicitly address personally identifiable information, the HIPAA Security Rule regulates situations like this under the term Protected Health Information (PHI). Some examples of PHI data can include:

  • Name
  • Address
  • Date of birth
  • Credit card number
  • Driver’s license
  • Medical records

None of those were revealed. If some intrepid ambulance chaser wants to argue “i gave your son a sticker” is a “medical record”, go for it. Hell in some Bumblefuck red state county you might get in front of a judge with that. But you will not be making any money off of it, and no serious attorney would waste the court’s time.

Confirming someone is a patient without consent is a violation.

Edit: but the mom did open the door I suppose so maybe not.
