Will HHS publish exception determinations?
Answer:
Yes. The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) will promptly inform the public of exception determinations through publication of notice in the Federal Register, and on HHS' web sites, including the OCR Privacy web site.
HHS is committed to making its websites and documents accessible to the widest possible audience, including individuals with disabilities. We are in the process of retroactively making some documents accessible. If you need assistance accessing an accessible version of this document, please reach out to the guidance@hhs.gov.
