Ch. 20 1. Read the following scenario and answer the question in 5-10 sentences. You are an administrator working for the Maine Department of Environmental Protection, a state administrative agency. You are tasked with implementing a new and controversial pollution control rule. The media will be watching closely to ensure all required procedures are followed. Local citizens are requesting that the rule be implemented immediately and without a hearing because, they argue, the need for controls are so acute. A California environmental group is requesting that you consider the impacts of the rule on their state. A manufacturing lobbyist has asked you to decrease relevant pollution standards in the rule by 90%, even though you have significant evidence that current pollution levels are dangerously high. Assuming that Maine administrative law, including the Administrative Procedure Act, is substantially the same as federal law discussed in this chapter, evaluate your responses to these requests in light of rules you need to follow. You want to avoid having your rule held unlawful and set aside by a court.

Richard is one of your information technology supervisors. You learn that Richard has been emailing Brenda, an information technology technician who reports to him, pornographic photos and sexually-directed jokes.

Preventing sexual harassment has been a major priority for you, and you have established extensive complaint procedures, dispute resolution mechanisms, and sexual harassment prevention policies. You are surprised that Brenda didn't use these resources before seeking legal redress. Evaluate whether your company may be held liable for Richard's conduct.

A former UCLA Health System employee became the first person in the nation to be sentenced to federal prison for violating HIPAA. Huping Zhou, 47, of Los Angeles, was sentenced to four months in prison on April 27 after pleading guilty in January to four misdemeanor counts of accessing and reading the confidential medical records of his supervisors and high-profile celebrities, according to the US Attorney’s Office (Links to an external site.) for the Central District of California. Zhou was also fined $2,000. In 2003, Zhou, who was a licensed cardiothoracic surgeon in China before immigrating to the United States, was employed as a researcher with the UCLA School of Medicine.
On October 29, 2003, Zhou received notice that UCLA intended to dismiss him for job performance reasons unrelated to the illegal access of medical records. That night, Zhou accessed and read his immediate supervisor’s medical records as well as those of other coworkers. Over the next three weeks, Zhou abused his access to the organization’s electronic health record system to view the medical records of celebrities and high-profile patients, including Drew Barrymore, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Tom Hanks, and Leonardo DiCaprio.
According to court documents, Zhou accessed the UCLA record system 323 times during the three-week period. In the plea agreement, Zhou admitted he obtained and read patient health information on four specific occasions—with no legitimate reason, medical or otherwise—after he was terminated from his job. Zhou did not improperly use or attempt to sell any of the information he illegally accessed, according to the press release. In January, Zhou’s attorney, Edward Robinson, was quoted in the UCLA student newspaper saying Zhou did not know that accessing the records was a federal crime.
