I work for an office that has patient files on desks and the hipaa sign in sheets out for anyone to see. The doctor doesn't seem to think this is a problem and when I bring it to her attention she bites my head off. This is very upsetting to me, am I wrong?

I have never been in a doctors office where there was not a sign in sheet on the counter,

Are the records open, can you see what is in the files
