#69: HIPAA - The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act
from Dental Hygiene Student Podcast with The Happy Flosser RDH · host Billie Lunt RDH MSDH
The HIPAA Public law 104-191 was established in 1996. This law includes the protection of patient privacy and protects all patient's individual identifiable health information. It is important for dental hygiene students to understand the HIPAA law prior to treating patients during their coursework in school. As a provider, you must comply with the rules and sections of the law and understand the enforcement penalties for noncompliance. There are documents students will need to be familiar with in order to be compliant during patient care. As I say.... "Those who know will grow."
