HIPAA Security Requirements
What is HIPAA? - correct answer ✔Health Insurance Portability and
Accountability Act - these regulations set standards for critical aspects of
healthcare data management, including the right of patients to have privacy,
the necessity for appropriate security controls to protect private data, and the
requirements healthcare organizations have if that data has been breached by
a malicious third party.


This is managed by the Department of Health and Human Services & The
Office for Civil Rights.


What is HIPAA data compliance? - correct answer ✔Health Insurance
Portability and Accountability Act - data compliance is an important
fundamental tenet of HIPAA compliance; the physical security of data,
encryption standards used to protect that data, and the procedures used to
document, transmit, and store data are all critical parts of HIPAA and its
underlying requirements. In a world of electronic record-keeping, ensuring the
confidentiality of private patient information, digital data transfer and cloud
services is key.


Why is HIPAA compliance important? - correct answer ✔If a patient's
records are stolen, the patient's privacy may be violated. Stolen records can
be used to commit identity theft or financial fraud, leading to financial losses or
the unauthorized use of benefits. Intercepted sensitive medical information
can also be used to blackmail the patient or to target them for harassment.


What is a Covered Entity? - correct answer ✔These are the hospitals,
doctors, clinics, insurance agencies, or anyone that regularly works with
patients and their private data.

, What is a Business Associate? - correct answer ✔Service providers that
work closely with Covered Entities without directly working with patients.
Business associates often handle private data because of their technology
products, consulting, financial administration, data analysis, or other services.


What is ePHI? - correct answer ✔Electronic Personal Health Information
(ePHI) - ePHI is the legal name of private patient data stored and transmitted
through electronic means. All privacy, security, and reporting rules refer to the
protection and management of ePHI?


What are the four main HIPAA rules and how do they impact compliance? -
correct answer ✔The Privacy Rule, The Security Rule, The Breach
Notification Rule & The Omnibus Rule.


What is the HIPAA Privacy Rule? - correct answer ✔The Privacy Rule is
located at 45 CFR, Part 160 and at Subparts A and E of Part 164.


Establishes national standards to protect individuals' medical records and
other personal health information and applies to health plans, health care
clearinghouses, and those health care providers that conduct certain health
care transactions electronically. The Rule requires appropriate safeguards to
protect the privacy of personal health information, and sets limits and
conditions on the uses and disclosures that may be made of such information
without patient authorization. The rule also gives patients rights over their
health information, including rights to examine and obtain a copy of their
health records, and to request corrections.
