Spears Sparks New Rules at UCLA Medical Center


Last week there were reports that UCLA Medical Center was seriously considering terminating at least 13 employees and suspending another 6 physicians for snooping through Britney Spears' confidential files.

Not only has the hospital stood by their word (12 employees were fired) they are also setting new rules and regulations "to enhance patient privacy and confidentiality", reports the Los Angeles Times newspaper.

All cell phones and laptops are officially banned from the hospital in order to avoid patient information getting leaked. We're surprised that from the 20+ employees that were caught snooping through her files, there was no juicy information leaked.

The HIPPA laws are for patient confidence...those people that was looking into Britneys file should be prosecuted.It was just lucky no private information was leaked .Britney is just like everyone else and deserves her privacy during whatever she may be going through.Everyone wonders why she is such a wreck ,heck anyone would be after the heck she has gone through ,she cant eat without everyone making a big deal over it.Let the woman alone let her get her family and health back on track wthout an audience....I wish her the best of luck>>>>Annie

Pretty much it happens weather your a star or not and NEEDS to be stopped. People are curious by nature but rules are rules and I agree with the termination of employees who had be warned and did what they wanted..

Serves them right. Don't matter who the person is, you shouldn't go through people's stuff.
