Answer: 3 ways HIPPA protects privacy include

Ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of all e-PHI.

Detect and safeguard against anticipated threats to the security of the information.

Protect against anticipated impermissible uses or disclosures that are not allowed by the rule.

Explanation: The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) is a federal law that required the creation of national standards to protect sensitive patient health information from being disclosed without the patient's consent or knowledge.
