C. how does hipaa play a role in medical transcription

 HIPAA ensures that Protected Health Information (PHI) of any individual remains protected  and confidential in the process of medical transcription.

HIPAA has a Privacy Rule the defines a set of national standards for protection and disclosure of certain types of individual health information, called protected health information or PHI.

This is  where medical transcriptionists must especially be key on. They will be entrusted with sensitive patient data in the course of their work. They  have a legal, moral and ethical duty to protect this data. If PHI  gets out in a manner not specified by the Privacy Rule, then this will be deemed as violation of the Rule and legal action will be taken.

just put in mind that others aren't perfect. we all have problems that we feel makes us low of the low. but know that you are special and unique, that is what makes you out of this world : ). you might think and feel that others judge you, but mostly other people are scared if people judge them. just be happy, spend time with family, smile because that is the greatest medicine. a happy life. hope this : ))
