But a leading expert on the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act said a more likely reason for Dr. Sean Conley's selective disclosures appears to be Trump's comfort level in fully revealing his medical information. "That's a little head-scratcher," said Deven McGraw, a former career government lawyer who oversaw enforcement of the 1996 medical privacy statute. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said itās ādisconcertingā that information coming from Trumpās physicians āmust be approved by the president.āPronounced āhippah,ā the law essentially prohibits disclosure of a personās medical information without their consent.
