I don’t know her particular situation, but if she needed “non-emergency” medical care, it’s possible it’s only covered in the state. I don’t know why she went in or disclosed, but if she went in for something non life threatening it’s possible it’d be out of pocket anywhere else.
It’s always a good idea to disclose everything health related to your medical provider: how else can they effectively treat you. Any ethical medical provider will keep that confidential, plus confidentiality is protected by federal law like HIPAA …… someone does need to go to jail here, whoever violated her rights under the guise of medical treatment
