Updated with HIPAA 2024 Final Rule
HHS issued a 2024 Final Rule protecting PHI for reproductive care following the Supreme Court’s decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization which overturned precedent that protected a constitutional right to abortion. The Department of Health and Human Services modified the privacy rule to limit the circumstances in which provisions of the Privacy Rule permit the use or disclosure of an individual’s PHI about reproductive health care for certain non-health care purposes.
