On April 21, 2003, The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) prompted new Federal regulations which require physicians to ensure they are protecting the privacy and security of patients' medical information.
The HIPAA Security Standards require physicians to protect the security of patients' medical information through the use of procedures and mechanisms that protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of information. Physicians must have in place administrative, physical, and technical safeguards that will protect information that the physician collects, maintains, uses, and transports.
