Section 1176 of the HIPAA statute addresses penalties.
Section 1176 of the Act establishes civil monetary penalties for violation of the provisions in part C of title XI of the Act, subject to several limitations. Penalties may not be more than $100 per person per violation of a provision, and not more than $25,000 per person per violation of an identical requirement or prohibition for a calendar year.
