HIPAA Security Standards v1.2d
- Abstract
- The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) of 1996, is legislation that was enacted to streamline healthcare industry inefficiencies, reduce paperwork, make it easier to detect and prosecute fraud and abuse and enable workers of all professions to change jobs, even if they (or family members) had pre-existing medical conditions. The focus of this paper is the creation of certain baseline information security standards to protect electronic medical records.
