What does HIPPA stand for in the medical field?

Healthcare Information Privacy and Protection Act
Health Insurance Plan Providers Association
Hospital Information Processing and Protection Act
Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act

The correct answer is: Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act

HIPAA stands for the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act. This federal law was enacted to ensure the protection and confidential handling of patients' healthcare information. It establishes national standards for the security and privacy of individual health information held by covered entities, such as healthcare providers, health plans, and healthcare clearinghouses. The other options are not the correct expansion of the acronym HIPAA.
