HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) is a United States legislation enacted in 1996 to protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of healthcare information. It consists of two main rules: the Privacy Rule and the Security Rule. The Privacy Rule establishes standards for safeguarding protected health information (PHI) and grants patients rights over their health data, while the Security Rule outlines requirements for securing electronic PHI (ePHI) held by covered entities such as healthcare providers, health plans, and healthcare clearinghouses. HIPAA compliance involves implementing administrative, physical, and technical safeguards to protect PHI and ePHI from unauthorized access, disclosure, and alteration, with non-compliance resulting in significant penalties and legal repercussions.
