There are multiple federal health privacy laws that may apply to student mental health information. To assist mental health professionals working in schools in understanding how the federal health privacy laws apply to student mental health information, the MHTTC Network and the CoE-PHI are hosting a two-part virtual learning series that will:


  • Describe how federal health privacy laws (e.g., HIPAA and FERPA) apply to student mental health information

  • Explain how student mental health information can be protected and shared in compliance with federal health privacy laws

  • Discuss common scenarios involving student mental health information that arise in school settings through case study discussions led by clinical and legal experts

  • Demonstrate how relevant resources and technical assistance can be accessed through the MHTTC Network and the CoE-PHI

      

Session 1 (Tuesday, March 14, 2023 @ 1-2pm ET) will focus on the importance of protecting and sharing student mental health information. Subject matter experts will also provide an overview of the federal health privacy laws that apply to student mental health information.
      

Session 2 (Thursday, March 16, 2023 @ 1-2pm ET) will build upon the learnings from Session 1 by reviewing common scenarios in school settings that involve student mental health information. Subject matter experts will lead a discussion about clinical and legal considerations for each scenario.
