I have an appointment tomorrow with a new provider, and they sent a reminder message and said that eCheck-In via MyChart will now be a REQUIREMENT (God forbid they have staff in the office), and that if I don't log in and do it myself, they'll change my portal password and do it for me.
First off, how, when they wouldn't know the answers to the questions asked and would be making claims on my behalf without permission regarding things like payment responsibility and health information? Second, wouldn't this be a violation of privacy/HIPAA (I assume providers can't normally see messages sent between you and other providers, and other messages like billing, even if they can see treatment history)? Third, wouldn't this violate federal computer hacking law, by accessing someone's account and records without their permission?
