The HIPAA Privacy Rule is a set of federal standards to protect the privacy of patients\u2019 medical records and other health information. Most doctors, hospitals, and many other health care providers and health care clearinghouses, and their business associates, are subject to compliance with the HIPAA Privacy Rule. The HIPAA Privacy Rule provides patients with access to their medical records and other important rights. Failure to comply with the HIPAA Privacy Rule can result in civil and criminal penalties.
