Silly me, I met a girl online and we chatted for several months. She supposedly got in a car accident and was supposedly in the hospital for a couple of months. It conveniantly happened a week before I said I was going to visit her. I seriously don't believe her. The timing was just too perfect. The internet is so full of phony people I believe it is only good for chatting, and not for meeting people in person. This is more of a curiousity thing. I just wanted to see if she really was hospitalized. I don't know what hospital, all I know she supposedly was in a hospital in Oklahoma. There would have been a police report. Does anybody know a simple way to verify any of this using a hospital patient record or a police report? I know the exact date of the "accident"

Sorry...that information is confidential. If you find someone who would give you that information, they'd be breaking some major confidentiality laws.

We the surfers of cyber world meet with so many people every day. Surfing the net is the best pastime one can ever develop, as internet has the most knowledge, a surfer will never have to wait for a answer. The vast knowledge of cyber world is nothing as compared to the cyber society that it gives. Internet is a community but so vast that we need a place to make conversation easy. What more can be better than a chat room for this purpose, well a chat room and a message board along with a forum is the best combination really. I was actually looking for a place where we can find all these things with a profile and photo brouse option. Finally I got this site, this place is a very nice community where we can share every thing online. And also about the leader board, I must tell it is great. The thought of the leader board is unique, as not to many people has thought about this thing. And the method of getting the leader is very different and one must check out this site once. The cyber culture is growing, and it is about time that we find our club and that to a very different club, which is not a part of any big website house like the yahoo and google. This site am talking about has every thing that a cyber surfer ever wants. This is the website address, http://www.friendscyberclub.com/ Features of this site is: 1) chatting 2) view profiles and photos 3) upload your photos and make a cool profile. 4) your message board 5) forum 6) See your name on the leader board. There are also many more features available in the site, free to join.

The hospital cannot give you that information. HIPPA will not allow them to give out any information to anyone unless the patient agrees to it, that is why they have to sign for information to be sent to their insurance company. Also, if a patient is in a hospital and you need records/reports on that patient from another hospital, the nurse/doctor has to get a signed release and fax it to the hospital they want information from. It's a legal issue. And, I would think that the police probably have something similar to this. A person's privacy has to be protected... If you don't believe her, then tell her that. What you are trying to do is just downright underhanded. If she lied to you, that's kinda mean... but what you want to do is just as bad. Just forget it and let it be...

You would need proof of I.D. and you would have to be that person to ask for a copy of medical records or police records...BUT,
You could always google "hospitals in (enter city name) and then call them all asking if(enter her name) had been released yet and one may slip up and say something like, no oneby that name is here or has been here......but wouldn't be worth it to me when you know its a lie already
Why not just ask her what she was in for, from there you can find out if she is lying(which she is). Not like she can just come off medical terms that didn't happen

Sounds like she might have chickened out at the last minute.
Sorry. Not everyone is like that though. There are still some good people online. I met my husband online 5 years ago, we are still happily married.
If you know the city she lives in you can go to the citys police department website, they sometimes have accident reports online.

Do to the H.E.P.P.A laws ,no you can't find out about someone's medical history. But you can find out about accident reports as they are a matter of public record and where, when, who, and how, and if anyone was taken away by ambulance
