Reply to "ACE screening in health care: identified or de-identified?"

Please remember that on the original ACES assessment each of the  ACES questions had low levels of correlation with an individual's health outcomes.  It is only in the aggregate that relationships within populations existed.

In spite of this an individual's ACE score might provide an excuse for discrimination.  If ACES evaluations where medical tests they would be protected from this.  Currently they are not.

I suggest treating them with a high degree of confidentially. 

As I recall some practitioners deluded the ACES questions amongst many others in an initial assessment.
