HIPAA Compliant Medical Transcription
In 1996 Congress passed the Health Insurance Portability and
Accountability Act (HIPAA). The purpose of this Act was to
improve the efficiency and effectiveness of the healthcare
system through the development of established health data
standards and requirements for the transmission and storage
of electronic health information. HIPAA is the first national
regulation on medical privacy and is the most far-reaching
federal legislation affecting the use, release and transmission
of medical data.
