HIPAA Compliance
The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) has several required components that have been enacted in stages since 1996. The latest provision of HIPAA now implemented by Human Resources Benefits involves ensuring the privacy and security of a person's Protected Health Information (PHI). While Human Resources Benefits has always treated health information with the utmost care, HIPAA requires that we issue notification of MSU's compliance with HIPAA privacy rules.
Human Resources Benefits uses PHI for determining benefits eligibility and to enable the general administration of your health and dental benefits. Human Resources Benefits is committed to continuing to use the utmost care in handling this information to ensure its privacy and security.
Please read MSU's Commitment to HIPAA Compliance and the Privacy Notice which explain how Human Resources Benefits and MSU use and protect PHI. We urge you to read this information carefully and contact Human Resources Benefits if you have any questions.
