The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) is a crucial federal law establishing national standards to protect sensitive patient health information from being disclosed without the patient’s consent or knowledge. For healthcare organizations, compliance with HIPAA is paramount to ensure patient privacy and data security, particularly when processing health records for medical billing.
