NEW Model Privacy Rules from ONC and HHS OCR

September 16, 2013

The Office of the National Coordinator and the HHS Office of Civil Rights have released new sample Notices of Privacy Practices for providers to utilize. The forms were created in collaboration by the two departments with feedback from consumers and other involved parties. The new forms are customizable and offer a variety of forms for use. These new forms will help providers by complying with the new regulatory changes of the Omnibus Rule and can establish a baseline format for future development.
