Answer #1

1. It is not legal.It is illegal.The institution has no right to post about patient medical records.Medical records must be kept in a confidential way.It is violation of patient right and privacy.So the client can sue a petition against the organization.Client has full right to take action legally.

2.It is not balanced.Once the information about the medical records published in social media, it may be viewed and shared by many people.So the information is not confidential now it cannot be revert back now.So by filing petition and taking action legally can helps to hiding the post and the organization will be punished but the information was became public.So cannot make balance in this issue.
