Changes are made everyday and we may not notice or realize. We have to keep up with the security of the data we have in our possession. Security, if lose, could cost a fortune.
1. HIPAA violations are nothing to scoff at.
These days, the average fine stands at $20K
and can grow as large as $1.5 million for
each violation of the rules. As such,
healthcare professionals are all feeling the
pressure, trying to do whatever they can to
prevent failure of compliance. But in order
to prevent violation fines, you must first
understand which mistakes to avoid follow-
ing the HIPAA guidelines.
Are you ready for the HIPAA Auditors?”
Are You HIPAA Compliant? HIPAA Laws and Regula-
tions are divided into five
Rules:
Privacy Rule
Security Rule
Transactions Rule
Identifiers Rule
Enforcement Rule
Just having a BA agreement isn’t enough anymore.
HIPAA now requires that covered entities, BAs and subcon-
tractors conduct a risk assessment. We will assist you with im-
plementing all of the controls needed to put your practice into
compliance with all HIPAA regulations and laws. We will also
follow-up on all findings to assure you are HIPAA Compliant.
Our services include performing Compliance Audits, implement-
ing controls and education.
