Which Act of Congress addresses the privacy and security of health data?

  1. Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970

  2. Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1990.

  3. Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990

  4. Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996

The correct answer is: Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996

The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) of 1996 addresses the privacy and security of health data. The other options are incorrect because A) Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 is focused on workplace safety and health standards, not privacy and security of health data. B) Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1990 is primarily a federal budget reconciliation act and does not specifically address privacy and security of health data. C) Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 aims to prohibit discrimination against individuals with disabilities and does not directly address privacy and security of health data. Therefore, HIPAA is the most relevant and applicable Act of Congress to address the privacy and security of health data.
