HIPAA, also known as the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, is a 1996 law that dictates how documents containing patient healthcare information should be transmitted. For healthcare professionals and others who often handle sensitive healthcare information, compliance with HIPAA guidelines is a crucial part of their work, especially as more and more healthcare information becomes stored and transmitted electronically.
