Filling cabinets containing PHI should be lockable and have key control.?

Filing cabinets that contain Protected Health Information (PHI) must be lockable to ensure that sensitive data is secure from unauthorized access. Implementing key control adds an additional layer of security by regulating who has access to the keys, thereby minimizing the risk of breaches. Properly securing PHI not only complies with legal requirements but also helps maintain patient confidentiality and trust.
