Key Points: Information blocking includes practices that would “interfere with, prevent, or materially discourage the access, exchange, or use of electronic health information.” Following a legal requirement to obtain patient consent for a disclosure meets the “privacy exception” in the Information Blocking Rule and is not considered information blocking. If a portal cannot segment Part 2-protected records or prevent a patient’s proxy from unconsented access to such records, the healthcare provider should not share Part 2-protected records on the portal.
