Does anyone, Rep or Dem really know trump's condition? HIPAA question.

Is there some type of HIPPA waiver for the president? How do we know if trump has given permission for others to be updated on his condition? I would totally expecting trump to deny the release of medical information.

HIPAA

Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA)

I’ve worked under HIPPA rules for the last 11 years. He has HIPAA protection. The White House though has an obligation to report his condition in some way. They have chosen lying as their way.
