Abstract
The report is based on formal presentations, commissioned and in-vited surveys and papers, a literature review, and deliberations by the Com-mittee on Health Research and the Privacy of Health Information: The HIPAA Privacy Rule. The Commit-tee was charged with addressing the often-expressed concern of research-ers that the Privacy Rule burdens re-search without adequately protecting the privacy interests of patients and subjects.There is much to commend in the report. Among other things, it recom-mends the following: (1) privacy pro-tections should apply to all research regardless of the funding source; (2) the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) should take steps to harmonize the requirements of the Federal Policy for the Protec-tion of Research Subjects (Common Rule)
