Question by richard h: How to keep Medical Records Private?
I know medical records are confidential. But I have a personal condition that I want evaluated without it becoming part of my medical history. I have a history of moderate to heavy alcohol use and want to get my liver function tested and see a liver specialist. When I go to see the specialist, I know I have to be honest about my entire history for him to do a complete exam. What I don’t want is some insurance company coming up 5 or 10 years from now and saying..”you’re an alcoholic and we don’t treat preexisting conditions.” It’s likely the specialist will find nothing wrong with me but I don’t want alcohol abuse to be any part of my medical history. I thought of just going and paying cash so my insurance company would not find out. Any ideas on how to keep a medical condition private. If I’m willing to pay cash it seems it should be my own business. Many of us have private medical things and are fools to think everything is confidential. Please just try and answer my question and keep moral opinions or advice to go to AA out of this. Thanks
I already booked an appt. so they have my name and Dob. I wonder if I just paid cash and did not give them my real social if this would somehow make into my records.

Good luck. As a truck driver, they now use the insurance companies to Monitor us. We had to sign a waver that allows the insurance Company to inform the trucking company of all doctors visits that use our insurance. Their excuse, taking medically unfit drivers off the road. Personally, Unless it is a REASON to take the driver off the road, it is none of their damn business.

Your records are definitely confidential. However for statistical purposes, without names, they can be used. Schizophrenics should never mix the meds with any other drugs or alcohol.
