Alternate Title: HHS Rules for Patient Privacy
Url: https://www.hhs.gov/hipaa/index.html
Publisher: United States. Dept. of Health and Human Services.
Description: Last week, the US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) released the first in a series of guidance materials on new federal privacy protections for medical records and other personal health information. These privacy provisions come under the 1996 Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act. From this HHS Office for Civil Rights page, readers can access the news release "HHS Issues First Guidance on New Patient Privacy Protections" (Word, HTML), text of the final Privacy Rule, published in the Federal Register on December 28, 2000 (HTML, text, .pdf), and a Q&A section for each topic in the guidance (WordPerfect, HTML). Topics covered include patient consent, parental rights, marketing, medical research, and governmental access issues. HHS responds to many key issues of concern reflected in the more than 11,000 separate public comments on the final rule.
