I’ve been in and out of several environments which required HIPAA compliance and I always wind up have to search for hours to find the actual laws which relate to HIPAA compliance. HIPAA compliance isn’t like PCI Compliance. HIPAA is federally regulated, it’s federal law. PCI Compliance isn’t law, its just something that has been established in the Payment Cardholder Industry. Even though, PCI Compliance shouldn’t be taken lightly as you could face penalties from the industry.
