It limits the situations in which they can use and disclose protected health information, known as PHI. To maintain compliance with HIPAA, all employees must follow the requirements of the Privacy Rule by guarding PHI from unauthorized use and disclosure. In this course, the learner will learn about the Privacy Rule and ways to prevent breaches.
