About This Trend

HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) is a federal law that establishes national standards for safeguarding protected health information.

The law is currently trending due to a recent HIPAA settlement that underscores the importance of implementing proper safeguards for electronic protected health information (ePHI), particularly in light of ongoing healthcare data breaches and enforcement actions.
