Well, if they have access to it and didn't provide access to an unauthorized person, it's not a violation. It may be an internal policy that you shouldn't go snooping around random people's medical records.
ETA: I hope you don’t work in healthcare, or give legal advice in regards to handling PHI.

I was about to say....he clearly knows NOTHING about EMRs

Chartmaxx is better than Epic.

I have no idea what that is, but in regards to large acute care facilities, I doubt it.

EPIC will tell the story as to what happened. Nurses either did or did not. That simple.

For major facilities, it’s basically Epic or Cerner.
At the clinic and small scale level, there are LOTS of vendors that provide a more streamlined (read: cost effective) platform. Major issue is that many small facilities lean on the larger facilities, and the synergy created by sharing a mutual EMR vendor can be hard to pass up.

Oh, I’m aware. I’ve been working with EMRs, and Epic specifically since 2010. Epic is rolling out a new product, Sonnet, that is designed for smaller and midsized hospitals. Epic’s Community Connect is also expanding and bringing smaller clinics under the wing of larger healthcare organizations on the same system.

Why would so many people be interested in this clown's medical records?
Either
1) She is full of it and absolutely looked at it, in which case there is a trail, or
2) They didn't touch the records at all, and the hospital is using this to get rid of some people.
Hospitals don't play, though. My sis in law worked at Ochsner as a radiology tech. Was there for 6 years with a stellar record. One morning they were shorthanded and she got mixed up and did some kind of scan on the wrong patient, who just so happened to be unable to communicate. When the hospital found out, they fired her on the spot, no questions asked, AND banned her from getting rehired at ANY Ochsner facility for 5 years.

Idiots!!! No healthcare worker or other individual had the right ot view the record of a patient that is not directly under their care. These employees were just stupid and might wind up with a HIPAA fine, not a smal one either.

Children's Healthcare of Atlanta uses Chartmaxx (or did in 2014).
I worked on a project to merge all of their acqusition MPI's. Star, Epic, and Chartmaxx. Chartmaxx was the easiest to use imo.

ETA: To be clear, I most certainly can see your VPN sessions...and capture every packet you send and recieve to completely rebuild where you went, what you looked at, what you downloaded, etc. That's assuming you were able to set a VPN up on my network. Which you can't.

Is it true that the info is usually only accessed if they are looking for a way to fire someone? They don't have a secret command center watching everyone's screens, i dont imagine.
Nah. It's all after the fact stuff for the most part. Now we do have certain alerts in place where we get emails if people attempt to email, transmit (think DropBox), or load to a portable device PII, PHI, client sensitive data, etc.

If I have a browser open with ten tabs, do you necessarily know which tabs im viewing and for how long etc?
Yup. I don't know which order, but I do know what websites you're viewing and for how long. Again, I have to actively make an effort to look you up and watch. But we also keep about 90 days worth of logs.

We have cyberark to record sessions over rdp on servers, but i don't think there's that level of intrusion on the workstations.
We don't use SSL decrypt on internal connections like the what you're describing, but there are logs for session connection length. Also alerts for RDP connections outside of normal business hours, or if unusual users are attempting to RDP. ie, Susy from HR shouldn't be trying to RDP to a SQL database.
