Civil penalties for HIPAA violations are up to $100 per violation, with a maximum of $25,000 per year per requirement violated. HIPAA also carries criminal penalties: anywhere from $50,000 and one year in prison on the low end to $250,000 and 10 years at the maximum.

Not only that, six-figure settlements have been reported in cases in which health-related records were handled improperly.
