R.I. Gen. Laws §42-35-1 et seq.
Purpose and Reason:
These regulations were promulgated before the enactment of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) on August 21, 1996. This set of regulations has become outdated because it outlines procedures that may be partly or wholly in violation of HIPAA.
