Since the Health Information Portability and Accountability Act
of 1996 (HIPAA) was implemented in 2003, the Office

of the U.S. Department

other covered entities... until now.
Instead, a
covered entity must apply privacy protections to the protected health information about former inmates in the same manner and to the same extent that it protects the protected health information
of other individuals.
Under the final rule, we specify that
covered entities may disclose to a person involved in the current health care
of the individual (such as a family member,
other relative, close personal friend, or any
other person identified by the individual) protected health information directly related to the person's involvement in the current health care
of an individual or payment related to the individual's health care.
The preamble explained that
covered entities could not have general policies
of approving all requests (or all requests
of a particular type) without carefully considering certain criteria (see «Criteria,» below) as well as
other information specific to the request.
One way a
covered entity may demonstrate that it has met the standard is if a person with appropriate knowledge and experience applying generally accepted statistical and scientific principles and methods for rendering information not individually identifiable makes a determination that the risk is very small that the information could be used, either by itself or in combination with
other available information, by anticipated recipients to identify a subject
of the information.
To clarify the interaction between these provisions, in the final rule we have specifically added language to the paragraph addressing disclosures for law enforcement that permits
covered entities to comply with legal mandates, and have included a specific cross reference in the provision
of the final rule that permits
covered entities to make
other disclosures required by law.
(i) On behalf
of such
covered entity or

of the workforce
of such
covered entity or arrangement, performs, or assists in the performance
of:
Rather than creating a single definition
of «research information,» we allow

of other law, not
of this regulation.
Under the final rule,
covered entities may obtain authorization to disclose protected health information to private
entities seeking to establish registries or
other databases; they may disclose protected health information as required by law; or they may disclose protected health information to such
entities if they meet the conditions
of one
of the provisions
of § § 164.510 or 164.512.
We expressed the hope that
covered entities, their business partners, and
others would make greater use
of de-identified health information than they do today, when it is sufficient for the purpose, and that such practice would reduce the burden and the confidentiality concerns that result from the use

of these purposes.
Under this approach, only the component
of an employer or
other plan sponsor would be treated as a
covered entity.
