New HHS Resource Clarifies Your Rights Under HIPAA

Did you know that you have the right to access your personal health information from your doctors, hospitals and health insurance providers?
There are many reasons why a person may want to access their own health records, including:
  • to better monitor chronic conditions and treatment programs;
  • to find and request corrections to errors in their records; or
  • to contribute information directly to research.
Yet too often, as studies have shown, people encounter challenges when trying to get access to their medical information. This week the Department of Health and Human services released a new fact sheet and FAQ that will help clarify your right to do so under the HIPAA Privacy Rule.

As the health care system evolves and transforms into one supported by rapid, secure exchange of electronic health information and more targeted treatments discovered through the new precision medicine model of patient-powered research, it is more important than ever for individuals to have ready access to their health information.
