    • HIPAA stands for the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act
    • HIPAA was passed by the U.S. government in 1996 in order to establish privacy and security protections for health information
    • Information stored on our computers is encrypted.
    • Most popular email services (ex. Hotmail®, Gmail®, Yahoo®) do not utilize encrypted email.
    • Email is a very popular and convenient way to communicate for a lot of people, so in their latest modification to the HIPAA act, the federal government provided guidance on email and HIPAA.
    • The guidelines state that if a patient has been made aware of the risks of unencrypted email, and that same patient provides consent to receive health information via email, then a health entity may send that patient personal medical information via unencrypted email.
