U.S. Department of Health & Human Services (http://www.hhs.gov/) has delegated that the Administrator, Center for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) has authority to enforce and investigate noncompliance of HIPAA. Check instead the Department of Health and Human Services, Office of Civil Rights, who has primary jurisdiction at this time. See the link below: Enforcement may after review be passed over to the Deptartment of Justice.
