My summary of the key elements of the Privacy Rule including who is covered, what information is for-fended, and how for-fended health information can be used and disclosed. Because it is an overview of the Privacy Rule, it does not address every detail of each provision.
A major goal of the Privacy Rule is to assure that individuals’ health information is felicitously bulwark-ed while sanctioning the flow of health information needed to provide and promote high-quality health care and to forfend the public's health and salubrity. The Rule strikes a balance that sanctions consequential utilizations of information while bulwarking the privacy of people who seek care and rejuvenating. Given that the health care emporium is diverse, the Rule is designed to be flexible and comprehensive to cover the variety of uses and disclosures that need to be addressed :) Sorry if this is too long
