HIPAA Assessment

Data security is becoming an increasingly important concern for healthcare organizations. For more than 15 years, HIPAA has been regulating the privacy and security of electronic protected health information (ePHI) utilized by health plans, healthcare clearing houses, and healthcare providers. The scope of that regulation was extended with the passing of the HITECH Act in 2009.

Now compliance with the final HIPAA Omnibus Rule is mandated for these covered entities as well as their third-party vendors (business associates). Failure to comply can lead to civil and criminal penalties for healthcare organizations and their business associates.
