Can my medical records interfere with me getting a job?

We Answered:

Whilst I always thought it was confidential, there are some occasions when you may have to disclose it.
My friend is a teacher; she had a long-history of self-harm & bulimia before her training. This wouldn't be disclosable to her employer as it was past. But if she was depressed & on anti-depressants AT THE TIME of her application her DR would HAVE to disclose it - mental states do have to be considered before allowing people loose in a classroom of kids (please no its against confidentiality retorts - this is a FACT!)
Jobs in civil service or local authorities in the UK also require access to your medical records/DRs report.
Most employers can't require this information - but be careful if they ask how much time off you've had due to sickness, or DRs visits you've had - if you lie it is an immediate SACKABLE offence if it should come to light.
As long as you don't want to work in a sector that requires medical reports you should be fine to say you had 'family issues'. If you relapse its not an issue.

Frances Said:

does anyone know where there are part time jobs in healthcare such as medical records?

We Answered:

That should be a fairly easy job to find. With the transition to EMR, medical offices are looking for extra help to scan and organize documents. Try Craig's List. IF you live in NYC area, try Gupta Gastro

Advice on being a medical records clerk?

We Answered:

The medical environment holds a wealth of different careers from the obvious nurse and doctor careers to adminstrative careers. My sister really wanted to work in this field, but she wasn't certain perfectly what she really wanted to do. She uncovered the resource in the resource box below, it has lots of instruction, and it helped her to decide what she really wanted to do. They have assistance with other jobs too.

We Answered:

No, it will be quite awhile before electronic typing is perfected (if ever), and people will always be needed to edit computer transcriptions.
