1.
© 2017 American
Health Information Management Association© 2017 American Health Information Management Association Chapter 1: Introduction to the Fundamentals of Law Fundamentals of Law for Health Informatics and Information Management, Third Edition
2.
© 2017 American
Health Information Management Association Defining Law • Law – Represents a set of governing rules designed to protect citizens living in a civilized society – Establishes order, provides parameters for conduct, and defines rights and obligations of government and its citizens – Controls behavior that threatens public safety and sets penalties for disobedience

7.
© 2017 American
Health Information Management Association Health Information Technology • Push to decrease healthcare costs and improve quality and safety of healthcare through use of health information technology (HIT) • Movement from paper to electronic health records (EHRs) and health information exchanges (HIE) that enable the sharing of information with multiple parties and across multiple boundaries
8.
© 2017 American
Health Information Management Association Law and HIT • Public and private collaborations are working together to eliminate legal barriers for sharing electronically stored health information – Example: National Governors Association— roadmap to help states improve health information flow
9.
© 2017 American
Health Information Management Association Health Records • Health information comprises a health record which is defined as: – “Individually identifiable data, in any medium, that are collected, processed, stored, displayed, and used by healthcare professionals” (AHIMA 2010)
10.
© 2017 American
Health Information Management Association Types of Health Records • Hybrid health record • Electronic health record • Electronic medical record • Personal health record
11.
© 2017 American

12.
© 2017 American
Health Information Management Association Electronic Health Record • “An electronic record of health-related information on an individual that conforms to nationally recognized interoperability standards and that can be created, managed, and consulted by authorized clinicians and staff across more than one healthcare organization.” The National Alliance for Health Information Technology (NAHIT) definition
13.
© 2017 American
Health Information Management Association Electronic Medical Record • “An electronic record of health-related information on an individual that can be created, gathered, managed, and consulted by authorized clinicians and staff within one healthcare organization” The National Alliance for Health Information Technology definition

16.
© 2017 American
Health Information Management Association Privacy and Confidentiality of Health Information • Historically key components of the patient- provider relationship. • Inherent trust that patient information will be kept private and protected from unauthorized access. • It is important to understand differences between privacy, confidentiality, and security and how the concepts relate to law
17.
© 2017 American
Health Information Management Association Privacy • Privacy is an important social value; it means “a right to be left alone.” • Definitions – “Privacy is a right of individuals to be let [sic] alone and to be protected against physical or psychological invasion or the misuse of their property. It includes freedom from intrusion or observation into one's private affairs, the right to maintain control over certain personal information, and the freedom to act without outside interference” (ASTM 2010) – “Right to limit the disclosure of personal information” (Joint Commission 2016)
18.
© 2017 American
Health Information Management Association Confidentiality • Results from sharing private thoughts with someone else in confidence • Definitions – “Status accorded to data or information indicating that it is sensitive for some reason, and therefore it needs to be protected against theft, disclosure, or improper use, or both, and must be disseminated only to authorized individuals or organizations with a need to know” (ASTM 2010) – “Protection of data or information from being made available or disclosed to an unauthorized person(s) or process(es)” (The Joint Commission 2016)
19.
© 2017 American
Health Information Management Association Confidentiality (continued) • Privileged communication – Confidentiality, as recognized by law, stems from a relationship where information is shared between two parties such as attorney and client, clergy and parishioner, husband and wife, or physician and patient. The information or communication shared in these relationships is considered “privileged.” • Confidentiality obligates healthcare providers (individuals and organizations) to protect patient information
20.
© 2017 American
Health Information Management Association Security • Relates to privacy and confidentiality – Pertains to the physical and electronic protection of information that preserves these concepts • Definition – “Prevent unauthorized access, use, disclosure, modification, or destruction of information or interference with system operations in an information system” (Joint Commission 2016)
21.
© 2017 American
Health Information Management Association Security (continued) • ASTM E 31 offers two perspectives – Data security – Systems security
22.
© 2017 American
Health Information Management Association ASTM E 31—Data Security • Data security is defined as – “The result of effective data protection measures; the sum of measures that safeguard data and computer programs from undesired occurrences and exposure to accidental or intentional access or disclosure to unauthorized persons, or a combination thereof; accidental or malicious alteration; unauthorized copying; or loss by theft or destruction by hardware failures, software deficiencies, operating mistakes; physical damage by fire, water, smoke, excessive temperature, electrical failure or sabotage; or a combination thereof. Data security exists when data are protected from accidental or intentional disclosure to unauthorized persons and from unauthorized or accidental alteration” (ASTM 2010).
23.
© 2017 American
Health Information Management Association ASTM E 31—System Security • System security is defined as – The totality of safeguards including hardware, software, personnel policies, information practice policies, disaster preparedness, and oversight of these components. Security protects both the system and the information contained within from unauthorized access from without and from misuse from within. Security enables the entity or system to protect the confidential information it stores from unauthorized access, disclosure, or misuse, thereby protecting the privacy of the individuals who are the subjects of the stored information” (ASTM 2010).
24.
© 2017 American
Health Information Management Association US Code on Information Security • Protecting information and information systems from unauthorized access, use, disclosure, disruption, modification, or destruction in order to provide – Integrity, which means guarding against improper information modifications or destruction, and includes ensuring information non-repudiation and authenticity – Confidentiality, which means preserving authorized restrictions on access and disclosure, including means for protecting personal privacy and propriety information – Availability, which means ensuring timely and reliable access to and use of information
25.
© 2017 American
Health Information Management Association Ownership of Health Record • Ownership of the health record – Traditionally granted to healthcare provider who generates the record. However, state and federal laws have long upheld the right of the patient to control the information within the record – The HIPAA Privacy Rule (45 CFR 164.524–526) grants a patient the right to access, view, copy, or amend the record. – Ownership does not permit providers to share or sell patient-identifiable medical information as they wish.
26.
© 2017 American
