I need to know what are the disadvantages of Hippa? What are the advantages of Hippa?
No -- HIPAA applies to all healthcare in the US. The one possible exception, MEDICARE, opted to follow HIPAA.
It was created to give some guidelines that should be used to protect people's privacy when healthcare information is exchanged.
HIPPA is the health insurance portability and protection act. Basically, if you change or lose your job, your health insurance plan is protected by HIPPA. You also do not need to explain pre-existing health issues to a new employer under HIPPA. That is the portability function of the act. Obviously, you have patient rights and HIPPA will cover them while you are in between jobs.
Yes, in most cases employers are bound by HIPPA requirements in the US. However, there are exceptions relating to accident and injury investigations and prevention programs.

HIPAA stands for Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act; HIPPA has no meaning and is a misspelling, albeit a common one.
