HIPAA Privacy Standards
* Go to http://www.hhs.gov/ocr/hipaa/ and begin the research at that site for answers to the questions below. Be sure to carefully read the PDF file “Summary of HIPAA Privacy Rule.” (Note that covered entity means those who are subject to the HIPAA rules-like health plans, doctors, hospitals, clinics, andnursing homes.) You’ll need to use additional research material and Web sites to complete the project.
Please answer the following questions IN YOUR OWN WORDS with references:
1. Does HIPAA affect the patient’s access to his or her medical records? If so, describe the effect and the procedure for obtaining access.
2. Under what circumstances can personal health information be used for purposes unrelated to health care? (Hint: There should be at least 12 circumstances.)
3. Are there requirements for covered entities to have written privacy policies? If so, what has to be addressed in the policy?
4. How will employees in the medical office have to be trained regarding privacy (for example, who is responsible for training and record keeping)? What is required if an employee doesn’t follow the privacy policy? When must employees be trained? In what manner?
5. Give introduction and conclusion for # 1-4.
