Which one of the following categories of information is explicitly governed by HIPAA’s security and privacy rules?

The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) contains security and privacy provisions covering protected health information (PHI). It does not apply to more general personally identifiable information (PII) or payment card information (PCI). PDI is not a common category of information.
