Information about HIPAA Audit
What is HIPAA Audit?
Preparing for your
HIPAA Audit in Florida need not frustrate you; we, InfoSight
Inc., are ready to serve you outstandingly, and ensure that you do not
face any regulatory risks and fines! HIPAA, the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, sets
out the
standard for protecting sensitive patient data. Entities handling protected health information (PHI) must ensure that the
required physical, network, and process security measures are firmly in place,
and followed. Trust us to remediate your vulnerabilities, and accurately
guide you, on the implementation of safeguards, to minimize, if not
entirely avoid PHI risk.
HIPAA Compliance changes are regular, as are regulatory risks; real
risks are significant, and growing rapidly as the movement to Cloud and
Mobile devices gathers momentum. For those reasons, the HIPAA Audit in Florida is growing in importance. The HIPAA
Security Rule emerged in 2003. In 2009, Health and Human
Services (HHS) added “business associate” to entities that must comply
with HIPAA Act of 1996. In 2009, the American Recovery and
Reinvestment Act (ARRA) became law, and also the HITECH Act, which
includes breach notification requirements, for all covered entities by HIPAA.
