HIPAA-Compliant Patient Record Anonymization Pipeline

data privacy HIPAA regex anonymization medical records
Prompt
Design a Bash shell script that automatically sanitizes patient medical records by removing personally identifiable information (PII) using regex pattern matching and sed/awk transformations. The script must handle multiple file formats (CSV, JSON, TXT), implement reversible one-way hashing for patient IDs, and log all anonymization actions with timestamp and source file details. Ensure the script maintains HIPAA compliance by completely removing names, social security numbers, and contact information while preserving medical diagnostic codes and treatment histories.
