​
If your medical records or personal health information have been accessed or disclosed to someone without your permission or authorization, it may constitute a violation of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) (also sometimes mistakenly referred to a HIPPA) and lead to a claim for Invasion of Privacy.
HIPAA is a federal law designed to ensure the protection and confidential handling of protected health information (PHI). Although HIPAA does not specifically provide for a private right of action against a party for unauthorized use or disclosure, HIPAA violations can, nevertheless, be used as the basis for an Invasion of Privacy claim. Attorney Joe Adams has been successful recovering substantial sums of money for clients whose personal health information was illegally disclosed.
If you believe that your medical records or protected health information have been improperly accessed or disclosed, call Attorney Joe Adams at (215) 996-9977 to discuss your case.
