An idea is most likely to represent "common knowledge" if: - Answer- It can be safely assumed that the readers and the author are both thoroughly familiar with the idea and its source.
The primary way to determine whether an idea constitutes "common knowledge" is: - Answer- Whether there is an expectation that the readers and the author would be very familiar with the material.

Under the federal HIPAA regulations, state health privacy laws: - Answer- Can remain in
force if "more stringent" than HIPAA, complementing HIPAA's foundation of protections, provided there is no direct conflict in requirements.
