[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think OP has exposed themselves as an attention seeker, is leaving out essential information, and the child has an open CFSA/Medical flag. From the details provided and reading between the lines, my gut is telling me that OP is leveraging a very stretched perception of what HIPAA is to mask the fact that the child has been flagged for possible need of extended support/care.

Using term "care manager" in the title of the post masks the fact that it was a Social Worker from the hospital that contacted the school nursing program to ensure follow up with the family, for whatever reasons/flag that may have been conveniently left out by the OP.

Multiple visits to the ER for certain reasons can definitely trigger a CFSA investigation without your knowledge, depending upon how a medical provider writes the evaluation or if the child has been flagged for possible medical neglect by Children's National. They can contact whomever they want to ensure the child's safety.

OP, your entitlement oozes through every inch of every response in this post. The energy you've exerted and time spent pestering the ED at your school about your child's health being followed up on, I hope you spend this much time actually addressing the underlying issues that would cause you to undermine a system put in place to protect children.

OP here....lol. If you have kids, just pay close attention to the consent forms if you ever take them to the ER at Children's. You'll see that it says they share health information with the local public and private school nurses to ensure continuity of care. So this is not something that they did specifically for our child...its their policy. Maybe you should have checked into that before tossing out baseless accusation against a parent who was only trying to get insight on an issue of concern.

Honestly, some people are so dramatic...there is no sinister reason that we've been to the ER several times...if there were, our kids would have been taken from us by now (and none of them ever have been). And again, not one time has any ER doctor or nurse said that we could have or should have gone to see our pediatrician instead of coming to the ER, not ONE...so there goes your "undermining the system" theory...lol.
