Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

HIPAA, or the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, primarily addresses the protection and confidential handling of protected health information (PHI) and does not regulate the legal size of practices. This aspect is generally governed by state laws or regulations specific to the healthcare industry's operational standards, rather than privacy or information security standards. Psychotherapy notes, designated record set, and rights of inmates are areas where state statutes might differ from or add to HIPAA regulations, focusing on the privacy and security of health information.
