HIPAA
HIPAA compliance necessitates the secure management of electronic Protected Health Information (ePHI), ensuring its safe handling, and conducting regular risk assessments as part of a formal Risk Management Program.
Covered Entities (CEs) and Business Associates (BAs) are both required to establish and adhere to appropriate policies and procedures to meet regulatory requirements.
Why Do You Need HIPAA?
The healthcare sector encounters ongoing cybersecurity challenges, driven by the substantial value of electronic Protected Health Information (ePHI). Without robust cybersecurity measures and effective risk management, organizations face potential penalties, reputational damage, and patient data security issues.
01
Avoids Legal & Financial Penalties
Non-compliance can result in severe fines, legal actions, and reputational damage, making adherence to HIPAA regulations essential for Covered Entities (CEs) and Business Associates (BAs).
02
Protects Patient Privacy & Data Security
HIPAA compliance ensures the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of Protected Health Information (PHI), preventing unauthorized access, breaches, and identity theft.
