Many laws and regulations impact health information—not just the Health Information Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA).
But what IS Protected Health Information?
Kirk Nahra and Daniel Solove shared this example in a webinar:
Is “I drink Diet Coke” health information?
- Maybe it’s not health information at all.
- Maybe it indicates healthy practices (no sugar).
- Maybe it indicates unhealthy practices (artificial sweetener use).
The answer isn’t simple.
