Thinking about applying for SSDI or SSI? Wondering how your medical information is handled and protected during the process? This episode demystifies the overlap between HIPAA’s privacy rules and Social Security’s evidence requirements.

We cover:

  • How HIPAA sets boundaries on what providers can share with SSA
  • What the SSA-827 form authorizes—and what it doesn’t
  • Your rights to restrict, limit, or revoke the release of medical records
  • What claimants and reps must know about secure document management, confidentiality, and compliance
  • Best practices for reps to avoid unauthorized disclosure and follow ARS/ERE security protocols
  • Why honest, compliant representation matters to your privacy and your claim

Perfect for disability claimants, family advocates, or solo practitioners looking for straight answers on medical privacy during Social Security disability adjudication.
