HIPAA Compliance
The Health Insurance Portability & Accountability Act (HIPAA) requires protection of identifiable health information, otherwise known as Protected Health Information (PHI). To remain compliant, employers must have in place certain safeguards, policies, and procedures to protect the security of electronically-transmitted and electronically-stored PHI.
