If all that is sent is the patient's name and address, that should be fine. If there is additional information that would allow someone to infer some about the patient's health status, something like:

Title: RE: JCAHO BAA
The JCAHO (as well as most of the other accreditation organizations) has taken the position that trying to field everyone's individual BAA would be too much of an administrative burden, therefore they will only accept their own. You are right but this is an exception to th

The name and the credit card number are not PHI under HIPAA. It does not become PHI until some health information is added. If the information contains CPT codes, for example, then you would either need to include that information in the
