A review last year by Indiana University Health, Bernard&#8217;s employer, found that she had complied with patient privacy laws.<\/p>\n<p>The Indiana medical board is made up of six doctors and one attorney, all of whom are appointed by the governor. According to the Indianapolis Star, some of the members of the board have made political contributions to the Republican Attorney General Todd Rokita, who accused Bernard of violating Indiana law.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h3>Arguments<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Bernard&#8217;s attorney argued that her client did not break the law because she was allowed to speak to the media and did not share any protected health information of the patient.<\/li>\n<li>Pro-abortion activists argue that Bernard&#8217;s case is an example of the real-world consequences of anti-abortion legislation.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\">CLICK HERE TO READ MORE FROM THE WASHINGTON EXAMINER<\/a><\/b><\/p>\n<p>Despite the controversy, Bernard&#8217;s case highlights the importance of protecting patient privacy and the need for doctors to be able to speak out about the real-world impacts of legislation affecting their patients.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An Indiana doctor was fined $3,000 by the Medical Licensing Board for violating privacy laws.
