Legal Issues in Healthcare Privacy for every patient is right that has been guaranteed in the country by different laws. However, certain exceptional circumstances might make it necessary to release patient records. The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPPA) has stipulated the conditions that might be necessary to give patient records in a court of law, especially when a medical practitioner has been subpoenaed. The records can only be disclosed if a state judge makes a request or if one of the parties in the case has applied for a qualified protective order. Thus, the hospital should check and ensure that all medical records that will be submitted during the court proceedings will not be used in any other place or for any other purpose. For the hospital records to be admitted as evidence, they need to give information about the irregularities conducted by the medical practitioner.

Nurses need to be politically active as this offers them an avenue to advocate for patients. This act is critical for nurses as it is one of their core value is social justice (Katz, 2007).

This serves to explain why most corporations undergo subsequent reorganizations after the acquisition. It is, however, evident that acquiring some form of synergy can be a difficult task to hurdle, thereby making no point of acquiring another firm. The tendency to achieve synergy often depends on the strategy being used to implement the functions. Organizations require conducting multiple synergies to achieve vertical or horizontal growth in their operations (Henman, n.d.). The company adheres to the policies as a way of ensuring that they achieve efficiency coming from marketing, capital investment, and synergies of management. The corporation is in efforts to gain benefits of scaling their business.
