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.

Here is a link to the Health Information Privacy page of the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services which explains HIPAA issues and compliance techniques. https://www.hhs.gov/hipaa/for-professionals/security/guidance/index.html

There are numerous IT security vendors offering HIPAA compliance checklists and services, or check with your own IT service professional about your compliance.
