Guys, it's HIPAA not HIPPA.
- thaumasiotes 8y agoThis is an interesting case. I always pronounced HIPAA as "hee-pah". That has the advantage of approximating the spelling, but the disadvantage that it's not really a natural way for an English word to be pronounced. People in the medical field, who deal with HIPAA all the time, pronounce it as if it was spelled HIPPA. It's a short step from there to actually spelling it HIPPA.
