In the first case, Dr. Anna Binder must also complete course work in professional ethics and patients’ rights under a consent order that she signed on March 31. The Department of Public Health began an investigation of Binder in October 2014 when Stamford Hospital reported that it had terminated its employment contract with her.
On Aug. 5, 2014, Binder inappropriately accessed the medical records of two hospital patients with whom she had no treatment relationship, the consent order said. The same day, Binder fabricated or attempted to create the false radiology report showing a normal chest X-ray for her personal use, the consent order said.
Linda Fazzina, a staff attorney for DPH, told the board that a nurse found the fake X-ray report on a copier machine.
The order said that Binder used hospital letterhead to create the radiology report using one physician’s name as the ordering physician and another’s name as the doctor who supposedly read the chest X-ray. The two doctors did not know that Binder had used their names. Binder did not contest the allegations.
Richard Brown, Binder’s attorney, told the board that Binder was undergoing fertility treatments and was afraid that having another X-ray would affect her chances of getting pregnant. Binder, who had received fertility treatment in Israel, accessed a patient’s record because she heard that person had received the same treatment in Israel, Brown said.
“She apologizes to the board for her conduct. She knows it was totally inappropriate. She’s embarrassed,” Brown said.
Some board members questioned whether Binder should have to go through a hearing and face a stronger penalty.
One of them, Dr. C. Steven Wolf, said that Binder sounded “somewhat desperate” and that he had concerns about her moral character. The board approved the consent order by a vote of 10-3, with Wolf, Dr. Robert Green and Dr. Peter Zeman voting against it.
