What does the HIPAA Privacy Rule protect?

  1. Only electronic health records

  2. Protected Health Information in all forms

  3. Only oral communications about health

  4. Insurance policies from unauthorized access

The correct answer is: Protected Health Information in all forms

The HIPAA Privacy Rule is designed to protect all forms of Protected Health Information (PHI), which includes information that can be linked to an individual's health status, healthcare provision, or payment for healthcare. This protection encompasses not just electronic records but also paper records and oral communications. By safeguarding PHI across various formats, the rule ensures that individuals' privacy is maintained, and their health information is handled with care and confidentiality by covered entities, such as healthcare providers and health plans. This comprehensive approach underlines the importance of privacy in all aspects of health information management, making option B the most accurate choice.
