This is a review of Lesson 6 in the College of Direct Support Course, Direct Support Professionalism: Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA). The lesson is in a "game" format. The game format is intended to provide a quick, educational, and fun way to review and relearn the basic aspects of HIPAA. The review will cover several key areas including: why HIPAA was enacted in the United States; the four primary areas covered by HIPAA; consent for release of private health information; standardized transactions by provider organizations; security issues and procedures; and the role of the direct support professional's role in protecting the private health rights of those being supported.
