HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996) is part of United States legislation that provides data privacy and security provisions for safeguarding medical information. Before receiving care or becoming an established patient at medical facilities, patients/responsible parties must sign a HIPAA compliance form which acknowledges they understand that their medical information is protected under federal guidelines. They must also list the name(s) of anyone who is able to receive information regarding their medical care or health. Without proper authorization, no one can legally obtain this information. It is crucial for anyone working in healthcare who may be responsible for handling any patient information to understand this law and abide by it strictly. Share any knowledge or experience you have with the interviewer.
