Recent federal updates affect:

  • Handling of integrated patient records
  • Substance Use Disorder (SUD) confidentiality protections under 42 CFR Part 2

Legal Authority

The HIPAA Privacy Rule requires covered entities to maintain and post a Notice of Privacy Practices that explains:

  • How protected health information (PHI) is used and disclosed
  • Patient rights
  • The entity's legal duties

Federal revisions taking effect in 2026 require Notices to reflect updated confidentiality protections, including integration of 42 CFR Part 2 protections where applicable.
