HIPAA
Help
HIPAA is a new set of
federal regulations that will forever change healthcare. The
stated purpose
of the regulations are to protect patient privacy, secure
patient information, and streamline clinical and claims communication between healthcare players.
The privacy
regulations become effective April 14, 2003 and all clinicians,
practices, and agencies are expected to be in compliance.
Becoming compliant involves new forms, policies, and documented
training
of all providers and staff.
Mental health
professionals lag far behind medical professionals in
complying with the regulations, particularly regarding
privacy, security, and the patient's rights
provisions. Although the regulations emphasize
training in privacy and security measures, few
clinicians have any familiarity with HIPAA.
