HIPAA rules NOT apply to which type of group plan?

Explanation:
HIPAA rules protect the privacy of health information in plans that provide health benefits. Life insurance, even when offered through a group plan, is not health coverage and doesn’t revolve around medical care. Because it isn’t a health plan, HIPAA’s privacy and related protections don’t apply to it. The other options involve health-related benefits (medical expense or dental coverage), which are the types of benefits that HIPAA governs.
