What is HIPAA?
HIPAA stands for the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, a federal law enacted in 1996. Its main purpose is to protect the privacy and security of individuals' healthcare information. The law establishes national standards for the electronic exchange, privacy, and security of protected health information (PHI).
