In 1996, Congress enacted HIPAA to protect the confidentiality and security of health records, particularly as more records became electronic. The subsequent enactment of the Hi-Tech Act further extended privacy protections for electronically stored and shared health records. Today, healthcare providers must comply with both acts when a copy of a health record is requested. Contrary to common belief, most requests for health records come from outside groups, not patients. HIPAA regulates who can access these records, requiring that every authorization includes nine specific criteria before any health records can be released. Each request form varies, making attention to detail essential for fulfilling these requests properly and efficiently.
