HIPAA compliance

HIPAA compliance refers to following laws that protect patients' medical information from being shared improperly. It requires healthcare providers and covered entities to keep personal health details private, secure, and only shared with authorized individuals. This includes implementing safeguards like secure electronic records, staff training, and policies to prevent unauthorized access. The goal is to ensure patient trust, maintain confidentiality, and promote the responsible management of sensitive health data while allowing appropriate sharing for healthcare operations.
