Zoho Forms: A powerful form builder designed for HIPAA compliance
The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (including the Privacy Rule, Security Rule, Breach Notification Rule, and Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act) requires covered entities and business associates to take certain measures to protect individuals' health information. It also provides specific rights to patients. Zoho Forms does not collect, use, store, or maintain health information protected by HIPAA for its own purposes. However, Zoho Forms provides certain features to help customers use forms in a HIPAA compliant manner.
