The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) is a federal law that required the creation of national standards to protect sensitive patient health information from being disclosed without the patient’s consent or knowledge. The US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) issued the HIPAA Privacy Rule to implement the requirements of HIPAA.
This is sometimes referred to as a “consent,” an “authorization to release,” a “release of information,” or “authorization for disclosure.” The person who signs the release must give informed consent for the information to be disclosed. "Informed consent" means that the person consenting to the disclosure is aware of the confidentiality of the information, the reason for the information request, and how the information will be used.
Release of information (ROI) in healthcare is critical to the quality of the continuity of care provided to the patient. It also plays an important role in billing, reporting, research, and other functions. Many laws and regulations govern how, when, what, and to whom protected health information is released.
