The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) standards are designed to protect the security and confidentiality of electronic health information.
The HIPAA regulations are impacting health care in five major areas:
* Standard transactions
* Standard code sets
* Uniform identifiers
* Privacy standards
* Security standards
These HIPAA regulations and HIPAA standards are broad in scope, less definitive and require constant monitoring for ongoing compliance. The requirement for a third party security network vulnerability assessment results in that health care providers have to look outside for assistance.
The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) guidelines only give general information about what is expected of health care providers. It provides guidance but provides no details about specific HIPAA regulations and security practices. That is where the health care providers will need the most our security expertise, since they'll use that information to decide how to best proceed in protecting their critical information and systems.
