HIPAA COMPLIANCE PAIN RELIEF
Overview
What is HIPAA?
The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) is a federal law that required the creation of national standards to protect sensitive patient health information from being disclosed without the patient’s consent or knowledge. The US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) issued the HIPAA Privacy Rule to implement the requirements of HIPAA.
Why HIPAA RISK ASSESSMENT?
Organizations are investing more time, money and energy in cybersecurity than at any other period in history. Despite skyrocketing investments, organizations are no more secure than they were in the past. Risk Management is important because cybersecurity is complex and it’s the foundation of HIPAA compliance.
Our HIPAA Risk Assessment aligns the requirements of the HIPAA Security Rule requiring a Covered Entity to, “Conduct an accurate and thorough assessment of the potential risks and vulnerabilities to the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of ePHI held by the Covered Entity.”
HIPAA Compliance in 3 Steps
1. Conduct a HIPAA Risk Assessment
Conducting risk assessment based on standards NIST SP 800-30, NIST SP 800-53, and NIST SP 800-66 for identifying and prioritizing risks.
2. Develop a Corrective Action Plan
This step-by-step plan describes what you’re doing, when you’re doing it and who’s responsible for getting it done. It is based exclusively on the risks from #1. This often overlooked artifact is required by regulators.
3. Demonstrate Progress
This forward momentum is completely managed by our team of healthcare cybersecurity experts. We do all of the heavy lifting helping our clients document their progress.
