Applicable Legislation
PHIPA - 55(8)
PHIPA - 55(9)(b)
The complainant’s representative submitted a correction request under the Personal Health Information Protection Act to the Central LHIN operating as the Home and Community Care Support Services – Central (the custodian). The complainant submits that a home care assessment form contains a number of errors. The custodian agreed to make some corrections, but not others. In this decision, the adjudicator finds that the exception to the duty to correct at section 55(9)(b) (good faith professional opinion or observation) applies. The custodian’s decision to not make the requested corrections is upheld.
