“Vanderbilt's Transgender Health Clinic has been forced to turn over its patients' medical records to Tennessee Attorney General Jonathan Skrmetti who began requesting documents related to VUMC’s transgender clinic last fall. In March, Skrmetti updated the ask to include the names of patients referred to the clinic and the providers who referred them, as well as all emails to and from the medical center’s general LGBTQ health program going back to 2015, according to court documents.” https://wpln.org/post/im-definitely-feeling-scared-transgender-patients-want-answers-after-tennessees-ag-obtained-their-medical-records/ |
| I think DeSantis has done the same thing in FL. |
Student’s have access to medical care at Vanderbilt's Transgender Health Clinic. If a student wishes to receive inclusive medical care for any transgender needs or with a trans-friendly physician, they can make an appointment with: Student Health Center The University Counseling Center For general health concerns or assistance navigating the Vanderbilt University Medical Center, please contact the Program for LGBTQ Health at the Vanderbilt Medical Center. The Program coordinates a Trans Buddy program and makes referrals for LGBTQ2S+-competent providers and VUMC’s Clinic for Transgender Health. |
| This seems like a gross invasion of privacy. Would anyone be ok with your personal health records being turned over to the government? |
The gov has always had it. Here in nyc you sign into your nyc gov health account and your entire medical history there. I found this out when i was looked for proof that i got the covid vaccine. The gov has everything on us. |
| This seems like it should be a HIPPA violation. |
Your entire medical history? Some states have an immunization database but I've never heard of a database that holds your entire medical history. How is that not a HIPAA violation? |
| So much for “medical privacy.” It’s just outrageous. |
I’m glad to see this. We saw doctors jump on the pain management train for money and I feel this is the next cash cow |
Gross overstatement. |
Actually, just a gross statement. |
Speak for yourself. If this is even true in NY, it's not the case where I live. |
It would be terrible if trans people got addicted to gender affirming care. /Sarcasm |
