Yes, I have repeatedly read about the "certified"HIPPA facility requirement here on the forum. After hours of reading of HIPPA regulations I am convinced that the requiements of the customer's liability insurance company is the end all answer.
This is my personal opinion on this subject and I would ask if someone REALLY knows what a HIPPA certified recycler is please share this information.
By the way I currently do not have any medical related customers. Mike
