hipaa:
if you have patient information on your computer where people passing by can see the screen you should
turn on your screen saver if you are not using your computer but do not log out
turn your screen away so that they cannot read the information on the monitor.
close patients files and wait until no one is passing
not mind them passing by and just continue to work
HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) requires protecting patient information privacy. Turning the screen away directly prevents unauthorized viewing. A screen - saver without logging out may not fully protect (as someone could access if they know the password). Closing files and waiting is not practical. Ignoring is a violation.
