The document discusses confidentiality in healthcare. It explains that HIPAA was created to protect patient privacy and ensure confidential handling of health information. The HITECH Act strengthened HIPAA rules regarding electronic health records. Healthcare organizations must notify patients within 60 days if their information is breached. Staff must be trained not to access records without authorization and to properly report any breaches, as violations can result in punishment. Confidentiality applies to all patients, including celebrities.
