What is HIPAA?

The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and subsequent Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (HITECH) are standards for the safeguard of consumers’ protected health information (PHI).

The HIPAA security rule protects all individually identifiable health information a covered entity creates, receives, maintains, or transmits in electronic form. This information is called “electronic protected health information” (e-PHI).

To comply with the HIPAA Security Rule, all covered entities must do the following:

Confidentiality

Ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of all electronic PHI.

Safeguard

Detect and safeguard against anticipated threats to the security of the information.

Protect

Protect against anticipated impermissible uses or disclosures.

Certify

Certify compliance by their workforce
