Report Link What Are a Small Employer's Obligations under the HIPAA Security Rules.Jackson Lewis LLP - March 22, 2006 By April 14, 2004, all covered "health plans" were required to be in compliance with the Privacy Rules. Many plan sponsors believed that after becoming compliant with the Privacy Rules, their health plan(s) had satisfied HIPAA's "administrative simplification" provisions. The administration simplification provisions, however, include an additional layer of protection for a certain type of protected health information – "electronic protected health information" – with this layer being known as the "Security Rules." These regulations are codified at Title 45 of the Code of Federal Regulations Part 164, Subparts A and C . The focus of this article, therefore, is to provide small employers sponsoring one or more covered health plans a general discussion of the scope and compliance requirements under the Security Rules. Report Link CMS Clarifies Compliance with the HIPAA Security Obligations for Sponsors of Group Health Plans.Jackson Lewis LLP - November 28, 2005 Employers sponsoring group health plans have had to come to grips with the compliance requirements under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act administrative simplification regulations governing the privacy, security and electronic transmission of "protected health information." Many of these plan sponsors, however, were able to take advantage of the administrative safe harbor under the privacy regulations for plans that (i) are fully insured and (ii) with respect to which the plan sponsor has no access to protected health information.
