Client Rights and Notice of Privacy Practices

All County clients have certain rights with respect to their privacy. The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), and other state and federal laws, regulate the use of clients' Protected Health Information (PHI). These laws require the County to provide a copy of its Notice of Privacy Practices (NPP) to clients for whom the County provides treatment.

Information Privacy and Security Provisions (Article 14)

BAC works closely with HHSA contractors and business associates regarding our clients’ protected information. BAC offers a variety of assistance to HHSA contractors to meet these requirements, including training assistance, privacy incident coordination, site visits to assist with best privacy and security practices, and routine collaboration and feedback.
