Assignment: Healthcare Policy
A 45-year-old female has requested a copy of her 80-year-old father's health record. She has presented POA and has a legal right to access his records. You provide a copy to the woman, but she has many questions regarding documentation of her father's diagnosis. He has a Living Will but the daughter does not have the right to make medical decisions. He was admitted to the ICU last week from the skilled nursing facility. When discharged, he was transferred to a long- term care facility that is part of the same healthcare system.
