Are you required to be HIPAA Compliant?

If the answer is yes, your business is at risk of being hit by Federal fines unless you follow the stringent rules required to protect Patient Health Information (PHI).

The law requires that you conduct comprehensive, annual Risk Analysis to review your computer network – and your procedures – that could compromise the integrity of electronic patient health information (ePHI). The law also requires you develop and maintain a Management Plan and Evidence of Compliance to document the remediation issues in the event of an audit.

Failure to perform a thorough Risk Analysis and – and then failure to address the identified risks – is where organizations suffer the most when faced with an audit.

You can’t do it yourself. Managing HIPAA Compliance and continuously maintaining the necessary levels of security to meet everchanging threats is a tedious, time-consuming effort, and one that requires specialized IT expertise. One wrong step could mean expensive fines, increased insurance premiums, and damage to your reputation. Even if you have a plan today, maintaining compliance is a tricky business when it comes to technology safeguards mandated by HIPAA.
