The HIPAA Privacy Rule is the HHS regulation that limits how covered entities and their business associates use and disclose protected health information. It also gives people rights to see and receive a copy of that information. The text is 45 CFR Parts 160 and 164. This page is not legal advice. See the PHI entry.

The rule applies to health plans, health care clearinghouses, and providers who bill electronically. A vendor that handles PHI for one of them is a business associate and needs a business associate agreement before PHI moves. The minimum necessary standard limits most uses and disclosures to what the task needs.
