Privacy And Security Regulation (HIPAA)

HIPAA was enacted to provide a variety of protections for individuals and their health insurance, including access, portability, fraud and abuse protections and administrative simplification. The main thing we focus on is the Privacy, Security and Enforcement Rules for our patients. Which HITECH had extended the Privacy and Security Rules of HIPAA. HIPAA is divided into two sections. Section I protects the health insurance rights of workers who change or lose their jobs. It also limits the number of restrictions that health insurance companies can impose on individuals with pre-existing health conditions. Section II is far more influential. It contains rules, standards, and guidelines to protect sensitive health information.
