Answer:
The correct answer is "Identifiable health information that is created or held by covered entities and their business associates".
Explanation:
HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996) is a legislation of the United States that gives protection and privacy to the patients medical information. The category of protected health information (PHI) covered under HIPAA includes identifiable health information that is created or held by covered entities and their business associates. This means that the medical data that is protected includes the one that is managed by healthcare providers and their business associates.
