HIPPA acknowledgment
A HIPPA acknowledgment is a signed form that confirms that the patient understands the privacy practices of their medical provider. HIPPA is an acronym for the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, which was enacted by Congress in 1996 to develop standards for the protection of personal medical records and electronic health data. A HIPPA form is a document that allows people to ensure that they have control over their medical data. A person needs to sign a HIPPA form to ensure that their health information will only be used by the medical professionals. This helps to protect patients’ private data from being misused.
