The
Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA)
of 1996 mandates health care providers adopt unprecedented
standards related to the protection and security of
individually identifiable patient information.
The deadline for compliance with the privacy
regulations was April 14, 2003.
Because
of the scope of the legislation and its projected impact
on the University, we have adopted a
centralized approach to HIPAA compliance
efforts to ensure coordination, prevent duplication, and
leverage resources.
Questions
or issues regarding the University's response to
HIPAA should be addressed to Brett Short, Privacy Officer, Office
of Corporate Compliance, 317 Health Sciences Building,
0200,
or sent via e-mail to
Brett Short.
