HIPAA Description

The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) of 1996 is a United States legislation that provides data privacy and security provisions for safeguarding medical information. HIPAA is crucial for the healthcare industry as it establishes national standards to protect sensitive patient health information from being disclosed without the patient’s consent or knowledge. The act is composed of two main parts: the Privacy Rule, which protects the privacy of individually identifiable health information, and the Security Rule, which sets the standards for securing electronic protected health information (ePHI).
