How does HIPAA law apply to our clients that are involved with other agencies such as DJJ, DSS, DDSN and etc?

In addition to being able to share PHI to further treatment (including case management, consultation, etc. among those types of agencies), many state agencies will also likely enter into an Memo of Understanding , among CEs to further comply with HIPAA Privacy.
