Homework Help: Legal aspects healthcare

Healthcare professionals who have a “need to know” access to medical records have a legal and an ethical obligation to protect the confidentiality of the patient information.

I think it is not true, right?

You mean it's okay for them to blab about everyone else's health problems?

Under what conditions do you think they can talk about other people's situations? And who are "they"?
