The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA), is a federal law which, in part, protects the privacy of individually identifiable patient information and provides for the electronic and physical security of health and patient medical information, and simplifies billing and other electronic transactions through the use of standard transactions and code sets (billing codes). HIPAA applies to all “covered entities” such as hospitals, physicians and other providers and health plans as well as their employees and other members of the covered entities’ workforce.
