HIPAA considers which of the following as "individually identifiable health information"?

Individually identifiable health information under HIPAA refers specifically to any data that can be used to identify an individual and that pertains to their health status, healthcare provision, or payment for healthcare. A person's health claim information falls squarely within this definition because it includes details such as the individual's name, date of birth, medical condition, treatment provided, and the amount charged or paid for healthcare services. This information is explicitly tied to a specific individual and is used for billing and health record purposes, making it confidential under HIPAA regulations.

Other options, such as public health statistics, generalized health trends, and health insurance rates, do not meet the criteria of being individually identifiable. Public health statistics and generalized health trends are aggregated data that do not link back to specific individuals, thereby maintaining anonymity. Health insurance rates pertain to broader policy information and financial assessment without personal identifiers.
