How will incident reports be edited?

HealthCareDiversion.org may edit an incident as needed to comply with its policies.

Duplicate incidents (multiple incidents have been submitted by different people about the same diversion incident) will be consolidated together into a single record.

Cases might also be edited following independent confirmation, e.g., by including additional publicly available information such as court records or disciplinary actions of state licensure boards, or by deleting any Patient Identifiable Information (PII).

Names of individuals who have not already been identified in publicly available information, such as a grand jury indictment, will be de-identified to protect the privacy and reputation of individuals who have been accused of diversion but not yet convicted in a court of law or by a licensure board.
