Besides the fact that this makes me very angry, having worked in the medical field, again my first reaction is..... what about HIPAA. I seem to be asking about it a LOT lately pertaining to Michael. Do they think for some reason because it's him that it doesn't count or something?? I'd have to see how it works but even if the patient has died I believe people can't just go accessing his medical records. WTH.... Everyone who accessed it inappropriately should be fired for violating privacy laws!
Poor Michael can't even have any privacy after he dies.
I agree with you when it comes to his doctors running their mouths on TV. But HIPAA only covers medical records. Birth and death certificates don't fall under that.
