According to the American Medical Association (AMA), "Physicians and other covered entities need to have a written privacy policy and procedures manual that clearly outlines the policies, procedures, and sanctions for employees and agents who violate the policies" (AMA. Policy H-480.990: Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) Privacy Rule, 2020).
The US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) emphasizes that "Compliance with the HIPAA Rules helps to safeguard the privacy and security of individuals’ health information, promotes more efficient and effective health care delivery, and fosters confidence in the health care system" (HHS. HIPAA Compliance, n.d.).
