OCR Finalizes HIPAA Modifications to Strengthen Reproductive Health Care Privacy
On April 26, 2024, the Department of Health and Human Services’ Office for Civil Rights (“OCR”) published a final rule entitled HIPAA Privacy Rule to Support Reproductive Health Care Privacy (the “Final Rule”) to address new privacy issues that have resulted in the wake of the Supreme Court decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization (“Dobbs”). The Final Rule aims to strengthen reproductive health care privacy under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act and its implementing regulations (collectively, “HIPAA”) by prohibiting covered entities and business associates (collectively, “regulated entities”) from using or disclosing protected health information (“PHI”) to investigate or impose liability on any person for the “mere act” of seeking, obtaining, providing, or facilitating lawful reproductive health care, or to identify any person for such purposes.
