Spanish term or phrase: Propio Interesado
Cómo traducir lo siguiente: la ley sólo permite dar el historial clínico al propio interesado.

Más que nada es el termino “propio interesado” que me da confusión, lo cual he traducido como “patient” para no complicar las cosas. ¿Otras sugerencias?

agree  Anne Smith Campbell: Con la coletilla de "propio" (interesado), tambien lo entiendo así, por lo menos por España se interpreta así. El paciente es quien tiene acceso a su historial y a su divulgación si en todo caso quisiera.

neutral  Lydia De Jorge: So what happens if the pt is in a comma, or a minor, or for that matter deceased? The law cannot limit access to only the pt, as it would jeoperdize in many cases the value of the records.
