HIPAA Forms and Information

The forms and guidelines below are being provided as a courtesy to help ACPA members move toward HIPAA compliance. However, simply utilizing this material in no way ensures 100% HIPAA compliance. Please consult the resource list provided if you wish to obtain more detailed information.

These materials represent the minimum requirements of federal regulation; however, where noted within the materials, psychologists must apply the higher standards of California law and/or the Ethical Principles of Psychologists. ACPA does not bear responsibility for your HIPAA compliance.

ACPA wishes to acknowledge and thank Trevor Graham, a doctoral graduate assistant at the Wright Institute, for his tireless effort in synthesizing this material. These documents would not be available to you without the dedicated attention and labor of Mr. Graham.

We also want to acknowledge our Ethics Chair, Michael Donner, Ph.D. for reviewing these materials and providing us with critical feedback.
