Process for Compliance
|
See how inProcess meets industry
standards: |
|
The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996
(HIPAA) covers a wide range of research and health care issues
involving the privacy and security of information. Stiff criminal
and civil penalties may be imposed for non-compliance. HIPAA
regulations apply to covered entities, groups that include health
plans, health care clearinghouses, and health care providers. These
organizations must ensure that administrative, physical and
technical safeguards are in place to manage and execute security
measures to protect information, manage the conduct of personnel in
relation to the protection of data and control individual access to
information.
InProcess brings your business one step closer to compliance with
HIPAA, and can quickly become a way to regularly monitor your
compliance requirements.
Understanding the complexities of and ensuring compliance with HIPAA
is not an easy task for most companies. For those companies that
already have a process-centric culture, the effort to apply that
structure to the requirements of HIPAA is not as daunting. For those
companies who do not have a history of understanding their business
processes, inProcess is an ideal way to start.
HIPAA presents an opportunity for companies to develop an integrated
view of their business that is complete, accurate and up to date.
With inProcess, companies can confidently develop an integrated view
of their business processes and information flows, including risk
and control points that are necessary for compliance.
