I.    **Recitals**

**Parties**.  The Parties to this Resolution Agreement (“Agreement”) are:A. The United States Department of Health and Human Services, Office for Civil Rights (“HHS”), which enforces the Federal standards that govern the privacy of individually identifiable health information (45 C.F.R. Part 160 and Subparts A and E of Part 164, the “Privacy Rule”), the Federal standards that govern the security of electronic individually identifiable health information (45 C.F.R. Part 160 and Subparts A and C of Part 164, the “Security Rule”), and the Federal standards for notification in the case of breach of unsecured protected health information (45 C.F.R. Part 160 and Subparts A and D of 45 C.F.R. Part 164, the “Breach Notification Rule”). HHS has the authority to conduct compliance reviews and investigations of complaints alleging violations of the Privacy, Security, and Breach Notification Rules (the “HIPAA Rules”) by covered entities and business associates, and covered entities and business associates must cooperate with HHS compliance reviews and investigations. *See* 45 C.F.R. §§ 160.306(c), 160.308, and 160.310(b).

B. Health Specialists of Central Florida, the “Covered Entity”, which meets the definition of “covered entity” under 45 C.F.R. § 160.103 and therefore is required to comply with the HIPAA Rules.

C. HHS and the Covered Entity shall together be referred to herein as the “Parties.”

**Factual Background and Covered Conduct**On November 22, 2019, OCR received a records access complaint from the Complainant against the Covered Entity. The Complainant made a written access request for her deceased father’s medical records, which the Covered Entity received on August 29, 2019.
