Privacy

Healthcare organizations and professionals must comply with federal and state patient privacy laws and regulations, such as the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA). Some providers treating individuals with substance use disorders may also have to operate under the more stringent privacy standards of 42 C.F.R. Part 2.
