The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) was passed into law by the U.S Congress in 1996. In 2003, the new restrictions on Privacy went into effect. HIPAA now impacts virtually every aspect of the healthcare industry and has brought about a large number of changes in everything from the admissions desk at the hospital to a simple checkup.
HIPAA provides a uniform set of requirements for:
Electronic Transactions, Identifiers, Privacy, and Security.
Everything from how to store your paperwork to where to put your computers is now covered by HIPAA. This book is designed to quickly and easily answer questions about how to implement the HIPAA requirements into daily practice. This is a must have resource for anyone working in medicine today.
