HIPAA
HIPAA can appear
to be a daunting - and expensive! - set of requirements to meet. But
carefully managed, most of the changes amount to best practices that
will enhance your business.
The onset of HIPAA has caused much legitimate concern amongst medical
practices, large and small. With shifting requirements and deadlines,
it is difficult to know what changes to make - and when.
In fact, many of the requirements posed by HIPAA amount to sensible
business practice, especially in the areas of technology and security.
Implementing the changes in a careful, thoughtful way can actually
reap additional benefits in terms of more stable and controlled business
and technology processes.
With the Security Rules in place, now is the time to conform with
these standards - which are much more stringent, and govern your use
of technology to maintain patient information. The good news is: they
actually promote best practices, which can save you time and money.

a process for identifying, remediating, and maintaining the security
and performance of your systems in a way that complies with HIPAA
- but more importantly, makes good business sense.
