The HIPAA security rule requires continuity planning and disaster recovery processes for protected health information. Which of the following activities are required in order to safeguard protected patient information? Select all that apply
1. Lowering security requirements during a disaster
2. Development of disaster recovery processes
3. Establishment of a continuity plan
4. Creation, access, storage, and destruction of manual records
5. Give access codes and usernames to emergency personnel
2,3,4
Rationale: The HIPAA security rule requires continuity planning and disaster recovery processes. All health care organizations must have a data backup plan, a recovery plan, an emergency mode of operation plan, and testing and evaluation procedures. Lowering security requirements during a disaster is incorrect as the rule demands safeguards for security in more normal operating mode and during disaster mode.
