Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The HIPAA requires ambulance services to protect patient confidentiality and privacy by securing patient information, such as patient care reports, in a locked box. However, the HIPAA does not specifically require ambulance services to report child abuse. Reporting of child abuse is required by state laws, and ambulance services must comply with their respective state laws. Therefore, only reporting child abuse is not required by the HIPAA.
