Public Law 104-191, better known as the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA), is one of the most important data protection regulations in effect within the United States. It aims to ensure that all subject organizations undertake appropriate privacy protection measures to adequately protect any individually identifiable health information that an organization may have.

Those unable to do so risk facing financial, operational, reputational, and regulatory repercussions that may seriously jeopardize an organization’s ability to conduct its business.

Hence, understanding all of the major provisions of HIPAA is critical for an organization aiming to achieve HIPAA compliance.
