HIPAA Compliance Made Easy

The Health Insurance Portability Accountability Act (HIPAA) is here to stay, and compliance is mandatory. Therefore it is vitally important to ensure that your technology systems are working optimally, not only to maintain compliance but also to save on labor costs.  Add-On Data provides the tools to help you manage your critical data and remain vigilant in your compliance.

By using a proactive methodology, we can help you assess your current systems to determine where they may be deficient. Some areas of review include:

• Utilization of security and privacy tools, such as password changes and login timeouts
• Confirming confidentiality agreements are in place to ensure accountability
• Ensuring HIPAA policies and procedures have been reviewed
• Establishing that all new hires receive HIPAA training and results are documented
• Implementing systems in which employee computer access is limited by job description
• Confirming that all providers with access to information sign confidentiality agreements that include individual accountability
• Obtaining verbal proof of identity from callers before protected information is provided

In order to most effectively determine your level of compliance. we’ll help you create systems that follow each step a medical record takes, from creation at patient registration through patient discharge.

Add-On Data can help you assess your current situation and offer solutions both you and your patient can trust.
