The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) legislation imposes strict requirements related to the protection of personal health information handled by any organization. Medical practices, hospitals, long-term care facilities, pharmacies, healthcare clearinghouses as well as employers who sponsor health insurance plans are subject to HIPAA’s requirements.
