Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act is a Federal law that restricts access to individuals' private medical information. Knowledge of what HIPAA is and what it means in the workplace is critical, as violations of this law could result in hundreds of thousands of dollars in fines and lawsuits for the employer. Speak about what knowledge and experience you have relating to following HIPAA policies.

"I am familiar with HIPAA and complete annual training on the topic. I take patient privacy very seriously and protect it at all times. My workstation is always locked when I'm away from my desk. When I deal with patient family and friends inquiring about patient statuses, I always check their file to see who they have given consent to receive information."

"I understand the importance of protecting patient information and the implications if HIPAA is violated. I never leave charts out in the open, and I protect all documents on my desk from outside view. I only discuss the patient's care with those authorized, and I always check the patient's file before calling so I know if I'm allowed to leave a voicemail."
