Questions: HIPAA

The answer is HIPAA: the original text in the question...

Explanation for each option:

1. HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act): This is a federal law enacted in 1996 that requires the creation of national standards to protect sensitive patient health information from being disclosed without the patient's consent or knowledge. HIPAA ensures that individuals' health information is properly protected while allowing the flow of health information needed to provide high-quality health care.

2. FERPA (Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act): This is a federal law that protects the privacy of student education records. It gives parents certain rights with respect to their children's education records, which transfer to the student when they reach the age of 18 or attend a school beyond the high school level. FERPA does not pertain to patient health information.

Therefore, the correct answer is HIPAA.
