Is it illegal for receptionists to ask about your health?
7 AnswersLaw & Ethics8 years agoAre doctors in breach of patients' confidentiality, data protection or privacy?
By giving receptionists authority to ask about your health are doctors breaking some medical code of conduct or professional ethics. As no doctor in his or her right mind would ask me what is my problen in a crowded reception room, neither should the receptionist. I understand the need to save time and money and to separate emergencies from the non-urgent but it should not be at the expence of treating patients with dignity and a little respect for their privacy.
Should GPs have a private room or a sound proof cubicle for such assessments before going in to see the doctor and should the person doing the assessment be at least a nurse.
