HIPAA Is Funny. No. Really.

By Lynne DeVenny

Normally, folks don't think of The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 as cause for giggles.

So imagine my surprise, while searching for visuals to liven up what I am sure will be my wildly entertaining presentation, "Medical Records and Evidence: Key Issues for Compensation Cases" for the North Carolina Bar Association's Workers' Compensation for Paralegals (A Method to the Madness) CLE program, I found HIPAA cartoons.

Yeah, I know, I thought "HIPAA cartoons" was an oxymoron, too.

Thank you, University of Chicago Medical Center Compliance, for saving me from causing a medical records induced siesta right after lunch.

For real though, for more HIPAA cartoons, go to http://hipaa.bsd.uchicago.edu/cartoons.html.
