Ensure your technology remains compliant with local and federal regulations
For over 15 years, HIPAA has been regulating ePHI (electronic protected health information) applicable to healthcare providers, insurance providers, and medical clearinghouses.
In 2009, the HITECH Act extended the reach of the laws. With the passing of the final HIPAA Omnibus Rule of 2012, compliance is required for these covered entities and their vendors (business associates). Failure to comply can lead to criminal and civil penalties for covered entities and business associates.
