The one-year old HIPAA privacy rule has received varying reviews, particularly recently on the occasion of its first anniversary. Johns Hopkin's Magazine has a great article that provides a thorough review of the impementation of HIPAA at Johns Hopkins, in the format of a magazine feature. Lots of anecdotes and a great overview. A must read.
