Regulations
Summary:
HIPAA has separate provisions for the large and small group markets, and the individual market. The group market is the health insurance market under which individuals obtain health insurance coverage (directly or through any arrangement) on behalf of themselves and their dependents through a group health plan maintained by an employer, a union, or both. The individual market is the market for health insurance coverage offered to individuals other than in connection with a group health plan.
