Is there a HIPAA 
requirement on how to dispose of returned mail that contains 
PHI?

If not, how do 
folks within this workgroup plan on disposing of it?

Thanks,

Lee, weplace it inside of the 
patient'smedical records so when we see the patient again, we can hand it 
to them and get a new address. Note that the unreturned mail isNOT 
part of our Designated Record Set, since it is a duplicate of a part of the 
DRS. (billing, lab results, notes, etc...)
