Rather than trying to come up with an idea and then seeing if you can back it up with HIPAA, try going about it the other way around.
You've probably studied the HIPAA regulation and other laws, and probably ethical statements from AHIMA. This assignment can help you understand those by getting you to look at them more closely to come up with scenarios. When you do that, you'll learn and remember what's in the law or ethical statement.
Just read what's included in HIPAA. That can be either the actual regulation itself or your textbook summary. There is a whole part on privacy that is loaded with possibilities.
The AHIMA ethics statement is available online at www.ahima.org. If you just read it, you'll see several possible scenarios.
