Ans) The top five most-investigated compliance issues:
1) Impermissible uses and disclosures of protected health information.
2) Lack of safeguards of protected health information.
3) Lack of administrative safeguards of electronic protected health information.
4) Lack of administrative safeguards of electronic protected health information.
5) Use or disclosure of more than the minimum necessary protected health information.

- Mitigating a breach is mandatory—and an important part of the first step in your HIPAA breach survival guide—but over the past few years, OCR records indicate a troubling increase in healthcare providers’ lack of mitigation.
