Some Statistics: via Alan Goldberg, currently attending the 14th HIPAA Summit:

  1. Through December 2006, 24,000 complaints have been received by OCR.
  2. Over 18,000 (77%) closed.
  3. OCR referred 362 cases to DOJ, DOJ accepted 39.
  4. About 1/3 of the closed cases involved no-violation findings.
  5. Approximately 4,000 corrective action plans were issued.
