Examples of protected information in an individual's health record include their medical history, diagnoses, treatments, medications, test results, and any sensitive information shared during counseling sessions or therapy. This information is protected by laws such as the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) in the United States to ensure patient confidentiality and privacy.
