HIPAA is a critical piece of the nuanced privacy puzzle in the US, but it’s often misunderstood — frequently reduced to just a medical form or mistaken for a blanket privacy law. On Episode 31 of Privacy Chats with Rachel and John, we bring you a HIPAA “crash course” - who it’s for, data in scope, and the consequences of non-compliance.

And, just for fun, here are some silly HIPAA puns brought-to-you by ChatGPT:

"HIPAA-chondriac" – Someone who constantly worries about privacy breaches.

"HIPAA-ly ever after" – What you hope for after a successful compliance audit.

"HIPAA-crite" – Someone who preaches privacy but doesn’t follow the rules.

"HIPAA-critical situation" – When someone is taking compliance a little too seriously.
