An incidental use or disclosure is not a violation of the HIPAA Privacy Rule when it occurs as a byproduct of a permissible use or disclosure of protected health information (PHI). For example, if a healthcare provider discusses a patient's treatment in a public area where others might overhear, this incidental disclosure is not considered a violation as long as reasonable safeguards were implemented to protect the information. The key factor is that the disclosure was unintentional and occurred despite efforts to maintain confidentiality.

Incidental uses or disclosures of protected health information (PHI) that occur as a byproduct of an otherwise permitted use or disclosure under the HIPAA Privacy Rule are not considered violations, provided that reasonable safeguards were in place to minimize such occurrences. For example, if a patient's conversation is overheard in a waiting room while staff is discussing their care, this is an incidental disclosure. However, healthcare providers must still take appropriate measures to limit the potential for such incidental disclosures.
