"Can they find out what was said to the police?"

What is the name of your state? AZ Sorry, it appears that this subject has been totally exhausted by the OP Devomajos but I need to add: Involuntary commitment usually occurs due to a condition where the individual is "a danger to themselves to others." If you made threats to anyone the police totally can report that, especially to the person you threatened. In this case, if you said "I'd like to blow up Goldman Sachs" that institution can absolutely get that info. It's very unlikely that Goldman Sachs knows to query the specific incident tough. What no one can get is any medical records, that is protected by HIPPPA. Your records regarding your interaction with the police are totally discoverable and are actually open by the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA.)

However, if the OP has an illness advising a certain form of treatment (therapy) is inappropriate and could actually result in the OP eschewing that treatement, ie "those jerks think I need therapy and they must be wrong so I will never get therapy."

What the heck are you talk about? And what the heck is HIPPPA?

HIPPPA?

Health Information Privacy and Portability Act I inserted one too many P's

I'm posting as a response to the thread about a prospective employer getting police records

Two too many Ps and not enough As. There's no PRIVACY in the title (though privacy is what it is all about): Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act.

The police are not covered by HIPAA. HIPAA regulates "covered entities." A covered entity under the act is anybody who electronically transmits health information. Typically, these are medical providers and the insurance agencies, and related organizations that handle the billing.

I question your assertion that you are a "mental health provider".

Okay, question away! I'll be sure and mention this to my CEO.

Does this mean you started this thread to respond to some other thread (to which you didn't provide a link)? Why would you do that, rather than respond in that other thread?

Please make sure to mention that you have no clue about HIPAA, starting with what it even means.

I suspect it was a long-dormant thread so s/he figured it was better to respond this way, lest s/he be accused of necroposting.

I have every clue about HIPPAA, just got all the initials wrong, which is really common. Not sure what you are getting out of attacking me, but it's weird. I posted because under the Tarasoff decision there is a duty to report a threat to a person or entity. That and FOIA make it possible for an employer or anyone to get access to a police report. The thread caught my eye because it mentioned involuntary commitment, which is in my wheelhouse. Interesting symptoms you are demonstrating, by the way.
