title: The HIPAA headache. It just won't go away. An exclusive survey of privacy officers says full compliance with the 1-year-old regulations is still elusive.
abstract: After a year of HIPAA, there's still some adjusting to do. Some don't grasp the value of accounting to patients about disclosures, but HHS' Richard Campanelli, left, says it offers patients reassurance that their data was safeguarded. Baylor's Donna Bowers, on the cover, says caregivers are now understanding that "Maybe (patients) do care that I'm asking all these personal questions in front of all these people."
