Your records cannot be shared without a HIPPA authorization. If you have already signed it, you can revoke it.

Here is your starting point. Get a copy of your entire medical record from the doctor (he has to provide you with the same). Negative comments, if any, should be disclosed in the records. Additionally, you need to look at all the intake forms that you signed so as to determine what the forms allow the doctor to release to any other facility and/or insurer.

I am not sure what you mean, but you can go to the physician?s office and get copies of your records by paying a fee for copying. You could also write a letter to them forbidding them to share your medical records with anyone else.

Why would a doctor "blacklist " you, whatever that means? And why would he share your records.? I doubt if the doctor gives a hoot about you and you obviously don't give a hoot about him. why don't you find a doctor you like and trust?

HIPAA laws forbid your doctor from sharing your records without your express written consent.

I do not understand your question, even if there is trouble with the doctor/patient relationship, that alone does not change the confidentiality requirements. See an attorney with your specific concerns.

Yes, it is called HIPAA. Send him a letter demanding that he has no communication with any doctors, hospitals or other people or facilities without your express written permission.

It would be a serious breach of ethics to share your records without your written authority.
