This “Manual” is published to
provide a resource to the state and federal
regulations that affect the privacy, security and
disclosure of a patient’s health information. In
previous editions, AAHIM has included a section on
“Recommended Policies and Procedures”. However,
with the implementation of HIPAA of 1996, health
care organizations have developed extensive polices
and procedures to ensure compliance with the privacy
and security regulations regarding disclosure and
accounting of disclosures. The “Recommended
Policies and Procedures” sections have been deleted
and a new section entitled “Resources” has been
added. This new section provides links to various
government and professional websites and also
contains sample forms in appendices to several
chapters.
