It's HIPAA, people. Write it down.

Not HIPPA or HIPPAA or however else you feel compelled to spell it.

HIPAA stands for Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996.

I post this not to be a dick, but because:

1) I work with it every day, and it drives me crazy when I see people misspell it.

2) Because when you invoke "HIPPA" when you argue with right-wingers, they will laugh at you, and deservedly so.
