The purpose of the HIPAA Privacy Rules is to protect the confidentiality of patient healthcare and payment data in order to prevent abuse and fraud in the healthcare system. Published by the Department of Health and Human Services as the “Standards for Privacy of Individually Identifiable Health Information”, the HIPAA Privacy Rules stipulate the permissible uses and disclosures of protected health information (“PHI”) and apply regardless of the medium in which the information is maintained.

All health plans (with the exception of small employer health plans) and healthcare clearinghouses are required to comply with the HIPAA Privacy Rules, as are healthcare providers and – from 2013 – any Business Associates with whom PHI is shared. Failure to comply with the HIPAA Privacy Rules can incur penalties of up to $50,000 per violation – even if no unauthorized disclosure of PHI has occurred, or even when a reported breach of PHI may not have resulted in significant harm.
