A provider orders an ESR to be performed on a patient and describes the test to the patient. Which of the following statements made by the patient indicates an understanding of the teaching?

A. Advise them that privacy regulations prevent releasing patient information regardless of their relationship to the patient: Privacy regulations, such as those outlined in HIPAA, restrict the release of patient information without proper authorization, regardless of the inquirer’s relationship to the patient.
B. Verbally share the patient information with them since they are the subscriber on the patient's medical insurance: Even if the partner is the insurance subscriber, patient information cannot be disclosed without the patient’s explicit authorization.
C. Reassure them that they have nothing to worry about since their partner's visit was only a follow-up to a minor surgery: Providing details about the visit without authorization violates patient privacy and confidentiality.
D. Instruct them to provide proof of identity prior to providing the requested information: Proof of identity is not sufficient without a medical records release authorization form to disclose patient information.

A. Figure 8: The figure 8 technique provides good support and stability to joints, such as the ankle, and is effective in immobilizing and securing the bandage.
B. Recurrent: The recurrent technique is used to cover a specific area, such as a stump, rather than to support a joint.
C. Tubular: The tubular bandage technique is typically used for covering and securing dressings on limbs rather than specifically supporting joints.
D. Triangular: The triangular bandage is often used for making slings or covering larger areas but is not as effective as the figure 8 technique for joint support.
