Will BC notify parents if a student is hospitalized?

Will BC notify parents if a student is hospitalized? (In the case if the parents are not listed as the emergency contact). Isn't this information supposed to be protected under HIPPA? Does that mean that UCS, Dean of Students or other administrative teams won't/can't/shouldn't notify parents at all, unless they have a ROI form signed?

I’ve had my assistants reach out to UCS and the Dean of Students office for an answer, but I recommend you call the Dean of Students office directly, since you have a number of related policy questions you need answered. “Please contact Caroline Davis, Associate Dean for Student Outreach & Support at caroline.davis.2@bc.edu, 617-552-3470 or by stopping by 448 Maloney Hall to schedule an appointment.”
