○ phi is all the information that cha collects, stores, transmits or receives about a patient’s health, treatment or payment for service
○ phi includes all forms of data, including electronic, written and spoken
○ phi includes account numbers (including bank/financial/credit/debit card)

Explanation:

To determine the false statement about Protected Health Information (PHI):

1. Analyze each option:

• PHI does include geographical identifiers like state and country (so the first option is true).
• PHI is health - related information (not all information CHA collects about a patient; non - health - related info isn't PHI), so the third option is false.
• PHI includes all forms of data (electronic, written, spoken) related to health, so the second option is true.
• PHI can include account numbers (for billing related to health services), so the fourth option is true.

Answer:

The statement that is NOT true about PHI is: "PHI is all the information that CHA collects, stores, transmits or receives about a patient’s health, treatment or payment for service" (the third option among the given choices).
