ePHI (Electronic Protected Health Information): Any Protected Health Information (PHI) that is created, stored, transmitted, or received in an electronic form. Under laws such as the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), ePHI must be kept confidential and secure to protect patients’ privacy. This often involves the use of encryption, secure networks, and robust access controls.
