A Soldier can request that communication be sent to an alternate address under HIPAA standards when disclosing their health information could pose a risk to their privacy or safety, such as in cases of domestic violence or harassment. The request must be made in writing and specify the alternative address. The healthcare provider must accommodate this request if it is reasonable and can be implemented without undue burden. Additionally, the Soldier's request must be documented in their medical record.
