The California case in which you refer to does not have anything to do with a substance abuse treatment setting. You must read the federal code first before you say I am in left field. If you have any other questions just ask...BTW anyone breaking someones confidentiality in a substance abuse program other than in a child abuse report is subject to being charged with a Federal Crime. And Yes, the law does supersede any state laws. READ IT!!!

Troll Control:
I DID read it.  Apparently, you did not.  Wherever there are two standards, i.e. state and federal, the more stringent of the two needs to be followed.

Go back and read again, for comprehension this time.

Troll Control:
ONLY programs that fall under the "federal umbrella" must adhere to the federal law.  These include ONLY programs that receive federal money.  It does not apply to state facilities or private facilities.

You seem to have missed the "exceptions" part of the law (IF it even applies to the facility).

Certain exceptions allow providers
to share information with law enforcement without the patient?s written
consent. Providers may disclose
drug or alcohol treatment
records to law enforcement if the
provider determines any of the following
three conditions are met:

1) the patient?s situation poses a
substantial threat to the life
or physical well-being of themselves or another;

2) this threat may be reduced
by communicating relevant
facts;

3) the patient lacks the capacity
because of extreme youth or
a mental or physical condition
to make a rational decision

Before you say anything ignorant, go back and read #1 again.

Read, comprehend, THEN argue.

Yes, and the stringent refers to the clients rights, not the social worker or psychologist' s moral or ethical dilemma. 42CFR Part Six was enacted because the Government realized that drug addicts weren't seeking treatment because of the fear that if they talked about crimes they commited they could be prosecuted. I pray that you are no longer working in the field of substance abuse treatment because you are a reason why addicts never sought treatment in the first place. If you think you are so correct on this point, just notify the feds what you did. I'm sure they will be glad to let you know how much the fine is for the first offense. Then maybe you will realize why the law is in place.
Wherever the standard of freedom and Independence has been or shall be unfurled, there will [America's] heart, her benedictions and her prayers be. But she goes not abroad, in search of monsters to destroy. She is the well-wisher to the freedom and independence of all. She is the champion and vindicator only of her own.

non profits fall under the federal umbrella...they have tax exempt status therefore are federally subsidized.
