Your Situation
Tell us about the HIPAA violation so we can tailor your complaint letter.
This determines which state health privacy law applies in addition to federal HIPAA.
HIPAA applies to 'covered entities' (health plans, health care clearinghouses, and most health care providers) and their 'business associates.' If the entity is not a covered entity, your complaint may need to rely on state law instead.
Patients have the right to file complaints about their own PHI. Employees can also file complaints about violations they witness.
Select the primary type of violation. Your letter will cite the specific HIPAA rule that was violated.
Select all that apply. Most complaints involve the Privacy Rule. If electronic records were involved, the Security Rule may also apply.
