I recently received test results on a voicemail message (NOT A RECORDING...ACTUAL RESULTS. Being a male, i doubt the pap smear, hpv, mamography results were intended for me. I called the doctor to inform her, that she had left the patients name and results on my voicemail. She asked me to delete the message. I called DHHS to complain, they told me, since the doctor asked me to delete the message, they "could" investigate but assured me that nothing would happen. GO HIPAA!
