Not directly related to the article, but it seems pretty risky (and potentially not HIPAA compliant) to release photographs of software with protected health information on them.[1]
I do a lot of work with security in the healthcare field, and I'm pretty sure it's a big no-no to release information like that. Where it gets interesting is that I'm confident that the patient herself okayed the information... so where does that leave responsibility for the PHI?
I don't actually know the answer, but I'd certainly be interested in finding out.
