• FERPA is a Federal law that protects the privacy of students education records. (See 20 U.S.C. 1232g; 34 CFR Part 99). The HIPAA Privacy Rule requires covered entities to protect individuals health records and other identifiable health information and gives patients rights over their health information. The guidance is available at: http://www.hhs.gov/ocr/hipaa. Information about the Family Policy Compliance Office (FPCO) is available at: http://www.ed.gov/policy/gen/guid/fpco/index.html.
