The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) mandates that all healthcare providers, referred to as “covered entities,” must safely dispose of “protected health information” (PHI). The HIPAA Privacy Rule requires these entities to implement appropriate administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to ensure the privacy of PHI, including its disposal. For PHI contained in paper records, shredding is essential to render the information effectively unreadable, indecipherable, and irrecoverable.
What Documents Should Be Shredded?
Before shredding, the first thing to consider is whether or not the document contains sensitive information. Any documents that include account numbers, social security numbers, and any other personal information that could be used to steal your identity or commit fraud should be destroyed.
Additionally, assess whether the document is legally required to be shredded. This includes items such as tax documents and other financial records. In many instances, organizations must retain these documents for a specified duration before they can be safely shredded.
