<p>My experience with HIPPA and my elderly parents is that each provider needs a separate form, and it’s only good for a specified period, a year, I think. It’s a PITA, but also reassuring that our medical records are guarded so zealously.</p>
<p>I’ve never had access to any of D’s records, have not felt the need. We’ve never actually seen one of her report cards, although she usually tells us about it. Our only requirement about grades is, “Don’t lose your scholarship.” I have a feeling that if she were getting into academic trouble, there would be red flags long before report-card time.</p>
<p>I have found out about some minor infractions because the fines showed up on the statement, much to her surprise, I’m sure.</p>
