HHS Seeks Your Input on How to Improve HIPPA Rules
|
The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) is asking for public input on how the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) Rules, especially the HIPAA Privacy Rule, could be modified to better promote coordinated, value-based healthcare.
HHS developed the HIPAA Rules to protect individuals’ health information privacy and security interests, while permitting information sharing needed for important purposes. However, in recent years, HHS has heard calls to revisit aspects of the Rules that may limit or discourage information sharing needed for coordinated care or to facilitate the transformation to value-based health care.
The questionnaire requests information on how any HIPAA provisions may present obstacles to these goals without meaningfully contributing to the privacy and security of protected health information (PHI) and/or patients’ ability to exercise their rights with respect to their PHI.
