Hipaa audits

The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) Regulations that have been enacted by the United States Health and Human Services changed the world of medical practices and anyone who deals with Patient Health Information (PHI).

Reality:

•  You do not know if you are HIPAA compliant or not
• You cannot make good decisions if you do not know your standing in relation to the HIPAA regulations
• Once you add your computers to the mix, you really do not know where you stand in relation to the HIPAA regulations

How concerned do these questions make you?

•  Doctor, is my personal information safe on your computers?
• What is your disaster recovery plan?
• Do you have a computer policy?

Rather than give you a cardiac, we'll stop with the questions. Your next step should be to contact ATS so we can audit your practice or business. Our HIPAA Audits are technology focused. If you have one computer or many, you must comply with the HIPAA regulations as they apply to technology.
