HIPAA Compliance Service

HIPAA - The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, is a set of regulations that govern the proper use and sharing of protected health information (PHI).The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) regulates HIPAA compliance, which is enforced by the Office for Civil Rights (OCR).The OCR's responsibility in maintaining medical HIPAA compliance is to provide routine guidance on new health-care issues and to investigate common HIPAA violations.

HIPAA compliance is a living culture that health care businesses must integrate into their business to preserve the privacy, security, and integrity of protected health information through a number of interlocking regulatory requirements.

Protected Health Information (PHI)

Any statistical profile that can be used to identify a patient or client of a HIPAA-covered entity is considered protected health information (PHI).

• Names, addresses, phone numbers, Social Security numbers, medical data, financial information, and full facial pictures are just a few examples of PHI.
• Electronic protected health information, or ePHI, is PHI that is transferred, stored, or accessed electronically and is subject to HIPAA regulations.
• The HIPAA Security Rule, an addition to the HIPAA legislation enacted to account for developments in medical technology, governs ePHI.

Who should go for HIPPA Compliance

The HIPAA rule distinguishes two categories of companies that must comply with the law.

• HIPAA regulations describe a covered entity as any organization that collects, generates, or transmits protected health information (PHI) electronically. Covered entities in the health-care industry include health-care providers, health-care Clearing houses, and health-insurance providers.
• According to HIPAA regulations, a business associate is any organization that comes into contact with PHI in any way while performing services on behalf of a covered entity. Because of the vast range of service providers that may handle, transmit, or process PHI, there are several examples of business associates. Billing companies, practice management firms, third-party consultants, EHR platforms, MSPs, IT providers, faxing services, shredding services, physical storage providers, cloud storage services, email hosting providers, attorneys, and accountants, and many more are examples of business associates affected by HIPAA rules.
