the individual? nah dawg scroll down a bit here to see who it applies to https://www.hhs.gov/hipaa/for-individuals/guidance-materials-for-consumers/index.html
Your health information cannot be used or shared without your written permission unless this law allows it.

you missed the part where this is after you give them your health information, obviously if you haven’t given it to them they can’t share it…
