HIPAA: The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act is broad, covering many areas, such as privacy, security, and electronic transactions. When you hear people talk about Privacy, they are speaking of the Privacy Rule which applies to anyone who may handle a patient's health information. The Privacy Rule has requirements that must be met by April 14, 2003. This Act was passed in 1996.

Tracking Patient Requests - Keeping your promises
We will also track the various related requests made by patients.
*restrictions on how their information can be used and shared;
*amendments to their file;
*to see and copy their records;
*representatives to speak and decide for them on health matters; and
*alternative ways of communicating with you
Upholding these patient rights will be very difficult if you can't keep track of the promises you've made. We will allow you to track these requests and give your staff one place to find a listing and description of all requests so they will not miss critical information when dealing with the patient, his or her family and friends, or others who are seeking information about the patient.
