041357 - This thing seems to use IE, and requires setting "cookies" on which

041360 - confidentiality.
041362 - ..
041363 - Previously, Millie received a "secure email" from Doctor Johnson at
041364 - Kaiser and could not open it, reported on 100106 1317. ref SDS 12 TU4G
041365 - After several days trying to open the doctor's letter sent through
041366 - "secure email," Millie sent a letter notifying the medical team to use
041367 - public domain email for timely, efficient communications, reported on
041368 - 100108 0852. ref SDS 13 MW4P
041369 -
041370 - [On 100601 0830 Doctor Johnson reported he received
041371 - securemail from Doctor Rugo at UCSF encrypted to protect
041372 - confidentiality of Millie's health records, but he could
041373 - not open the letter; he sent Doctor a securemail advising
041374 - he could not open her securemail, and he received back a
041375 - public domain email from Doctor Rugo that she could not
041376 - open Doctor Johnson's letter from Kaiesr; as a result of
041377 - failed communcation with email and telephone for over a
041378 - month, Doctor Johnson was unable to prescribe treatment for
041379 - Millie to recover from medical mistakes getting radiation
041380 - treatments at UCSF on referral from Kaiser; resulting in
041381 - Millie being forced into Hospice to die. ref SDS 27 D658
041383 - ..
041384 - The next day, Millie was trying to open the doctor's attachment, and
041385 - had difficulty following complicated instructions, per above.
041386 - ref SDS 0 EQ4G She somehow deleted the entire letter.
041387 -
041388 - [On 100503 1522 Millie notifies medical team of difficulty
041389 - handling secure email. ref SDS 23 TD5T
041391 - ..
041392 - [On 100503 1945 Kaiser resubmitted letter sent initially
041393 - with "secure email" for protecting patient confidentiality,
041394 - and using public domain email with level of confidentiality
041395 - acceptable to the patient for efficient communication.
041396 - ref SDS 24 YL5N
041398 - ..
041399 - [On 100504 1609 Sara, Practice Manager for UCSF Oncology
041400 - Breast Care Clinic, called and notified Millie that lawyers
041401 - in the UCSF Risk Management Department want Millie to use
041402 - secure email to comply with Federal regulations; Sara does
041403 - not know what Federal regulations apply in this case, nor
041404 - what the regulations say that justify denying the patient
041405 - the right to choose the level of confidentiality suited to
041406 - the patients need for communicating effectively with her
041407 - medical team, and with transparency that encourages
041408 - accuracy and timeliness. ref SDS 25 ZV6M
041410 - ..
041411 - Kaiser's "secure email" was finally retrieved later in the afternoon
041412 - on 100504 from a backup, and after considerable effort, was able to
041413 - open the letter, which says...
041414 -
041415 - [On 100505 0411 Millie notified medical team that Kaiser's
041416 - "secure email" sent on 100502 was finally retrieved on
041417 - 100504. ref SDS 26 8J7X
041419 - ..
041420 - Doctor Johnson says...
041421 -
041422 - 1. Subject: Re: Cancer 11th Relapse Requires Targeted Therapy
041423 - Overcome Resistance to Chemotherapy (PHI)
041424 - Sent: Sun May 2, 2010 3:10 PM (2 days ago)
041435 - ..
041436 - 2. I am sorry but I believe there must have been some sort of
041437 - miscommunication during that last visit. My point was that
041438 - once someone becomes resistant to chemotherapy, sometimes new
041439 - strategies, such as with "targeted therapies" can be
041440 - successfully employed.
041442 - ..
041443 - This seems to align with record for the meeting at Kaiser on 100427
041444 - 0830. ref SDS 18 SJ6N
041446 - ..
041447 - Doctor's letter continues...
041448 -
041449 - 3. I went on to say that in your case those available strategies
041450 - had already been executed. I am sorry that you thought that I
041451 - was saying that I had, or there was, something new.
041453 - ..
041454 - This representation seems conflicting with the record. On 090325
041455 - Doctor Johnson asked Millie to submit a list of targeted therapies for
041456 - review by the medical team. This was done in a letter the next day on
041457 - 090326 0058. ref SDS 6 DW5S
041459 - ..
041460 - Since 090326, there is nothing in the record showing any of these new
041461 - "targeted" therapy strategies have been "executed" for Millie's care,
041462 - contrary to Kaiser's letter today, per above. ref SDS 0 MZ4N
041463 -
041464 - [On 100503 1522 Millie notifies medical team that time of
041465 - the essence to get the next treatment going. ref SDS 23
041466 - TD5T
041468 - ..
041469 - [On 100505 0411 Millie notified medical team that Kaiser's
041470 - "secure email" sent on 100502 was finally retrieved on
041471 - 100504. ref SDS 26 8J7X
041473 - ..
041474 - Later on 090616, Doctor Rugo said she had many targeted treatments
041475 - lined up for Millie, starting with MPA, and planned to treat Millie's
041476 - next relapse, after MPA, with PARP. ref SDS 11 KD6L
041478 - ..
041479 - More recently on 100112, Doctor Johnson reviewed Kaiser documentation
041480 - on PARP describing breakthrough targeted treatment for Millie's
041481 - patient profile having triple negative status. ref SDS 14 N586
041483 - ..
041484 - None of these treatments have been "executed." Millie's favorable
041485 - experience for nearly 2 years with cetuximab shows advantages of
041486 - "targeted" therapies described in the article on PARP.
041488 - ..
041489 - Kaiser's first treatment for Millie with the "gold standard" of
041490 - chemotherapy failed after 2 cycles. Kaiser did not abandon the
041491 - chemotherapy strategy, because it had been "executed," but went on to
041492 - try other chemotherapy agents.
