| 00-32678 | Standards for Privacy of Individually Identifiable Health Information | Rule | This rule includes standards to protect the privacy of individually identifiable health information. The rules below, which apply to health plans, health care clearinghouses, and certain health care providers, present standards with respect to the rights of individuals who are the subjects of this information, procedures for the exercise of those rights, and the authorized and required uses and disclosures of this information. The use of these standards will improve the efficiency and effectiveness of public and private health programs and health care services by providing enhanced protections for individually identifiable health information. These protections will begin to address growing public concerns that advances in electronic technology and evolution in the health care industry are resulting, or may result, in a substantial erosion of the privacy surrounding individually identifiable health information maintained by health care providers, health plans and their administrative contractors. This rule implements the privacy requirements of the Administrative Simplification subtitle of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996. | 2000-12-28 | 2000 | 12 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2000/12/28/00-32678/standards-for-privacy-of-individually-identifiable-health-information | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2000-12-28/pdf/00-32678.pdf | Health and Human Services Department | 221 | This rule includes standards to protect the privacy of individually identifiable health information.
