I always assumed if I emailed my Sis about issues caregiving for my parents, it was my private email to Sis. However, Sis (who has POA) has forwarded my emails to parents attorney.....and how the attorney is trying to twist things around to mean something I never said.
I always prefer to email, and will follow up a phone call with an email, just to keep track of what was said (and how it was received, and any actionables).
I am so sick of the bickering going on between my older Sister and I. But this really has hit new heights.
If I need an old email to be sent to someone, I scan it and attach it to the new outgoing email.
I have heard that by next year all medical records have to be digitalized and all networks have to be connected.
Nurses may refuse to discuss a patients condition with their family if the patient refuses but imagine who else can go on a fishing expedition.
But on the other hand, I can understand the privacy issue. But there isn't anything in my records that would be bothersome to anyone else. Now a days no one can be denied health insurance because of their medical history :)
So, combination of error between the doc and the pharmacy could have been very dangerous, even deadly for my Mom. If nothing else, you would think that the pharmacy would have noticed that something was just not right, called the doc to check on it? But evidently not. At least they took the prescription back and then had to dispose of over $1,000.00 worth of medication. It was a 90 day supply.
