The
Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA)
is a significant healthcare reform law that passed Congress in
1996. The law has its roots in the Clinton Health Reform
proposal, and its primary purpose was to provide better access
to health insurance as well as to toughen the law concerning
healthcare billing fraud. There are other corollary sections of
the law related to administrative simplification and privacy of
protected health information that have far-reaching effects for
Providers, Payers, Managed Care Organizations, their business
associates, and any entity storing, processing, and transmitting
healthcare information.
