HIPPA Statement
Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA)
HIPAA (also known as the Health Insurance Reform Bill of 1996) established new guidelines in many areas related to patient care and individual health insurance coverage. Several elements of this act significantly affect how medical product manufacturers conduct their business.
The Privacy Regulation
Implemented by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, the privacy regulation guards the confidentiality of patient health information by restricting how "covered entities" (e.g., physicians, hospitals and health insurance carriers) can disclose and use this information. LEXION Medical is committed to cooperating with customers in their efforts to protect patient confidentiality.
