HIPAA Compliant

Patient privacy and security are the main focus of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act (HITECH). Standard messaging often fails to meet the requirements of the current laws, leaving patient data vulnerable and providers liable for potential HIPAA violations.

Many people understand the importance of using a secure messaging solution in the healthcare industry. By replacing the traditional pager with a secure messaging app, doctors and nurses can remain HIPAA compliant, ensure the patient’s PHI is secure, and increase overall efficiency.

Encryption is an important tool to ensure our data is kept safe. Healthcare providers are required by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) to use encryption to protect their patients’ electronic protected health information (ePHI). This requirement also applies to any organizations, such as call centers, that process, store, or transmit ePHI.
