D. HIPAA Privacy Rule. From time to time Senior Assist Information Liaison may need to use your information to help you enroll in a program or apply for a service. HIPAA Privacy Rule protects an individual's medical records and other personal health information and applies to health plans, health care clearinghouses, and those health care providers that conduct certain health care transactions electronically. The Privacy Rule protects all "individually identifiable health information" held or transmitted by a covered entity or its business associate,in any form or media, whether electronic, paper, or oral. The Privacy Rule calls this information "protected health information(PHI)."

"Individually identifiable health information" is information, including demographic data, that relates to:

  • the individual's past, present or future physical or mental health or condition

  • the provision of health care to the individual, or

  • the past, present, or future payment for the provision of health care to the individual,

and that identifies the individual or for which there is a reasonable basis to believe can be used to identify the individual. Individually identifiable health information includes many common identifiers (i.e. name, address, birth date, Social Security number).
