Wait, is 'use' the same as 'abuse'? Asking for a friend who may or may not work in the healthcare industry.

Ah, tricky question. I'm going with C. HIPAA is all about protecting PHI, so 'use' must mean internal utilization, not external movement.

B seems to be the right answer. 'Use' includes modifying and deleting PHI, not just examining it.
