HIPAA Compliance Services

The Business Challenge

Intended to safeguard the security and privacy of personal health information, the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) isn’t just for healthcare providers. All organizations that interact with healthcare data need safeguards in place to ensure that that protected health information, or PHI, doesn’t fall into the wrong hands. But, from covered and hybrid entities to required and “addressable” specifications, HIPAA requirements can be confusing— and, with civil and criminal penalties for noncompliance, the stakes are high. Proactively conducting a gap analysis against the Security, Privacy, and Breach Notification Rules can save you millions in the long run.

How We Help

With nearly two decades of experience and senior HIPAA consultants with such certifications as HealthCare Information Security and Privacy Practitioner (HCISPP) and Certified HIPAA Professional (CHP), we’ll make sure you’re in the right hands.

Our HIPAA compliance services include:

HIPAA Security Rule Compliance

Our consultants compare IT policies, procedures, systems, and networks to the Administrative, Physical, and Technical Safeguards required by the HIPAA Security Rule. We also identify systems and devices involved in the creation, transmission, or storage of electronic PHI and evaluate these technologies for technical threats, vulnerabilities, and risks.

HIPAA Privacy and Breach Notification Rule Compliance

Securance maps departmental policies and procedures to HIPAA Privacy Rule requirements to determine compliance with each section of the Rule. We also review the organization’s breach notification process and policies against the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (HITECH) Act.

The Securance Difference

Executive-level consultants provide hands-on leadership to ensure every project is a success. Each engagement is led by senior-level consultants with 20 or more years of experience.
Our consultants leverage their experience to maximize efficiency. You can expect a board-ready draft report within one week after our assessment is done.
In our reports, we translate technical findings into business risks that all stakeholders, in and outside of IT, can understand and appreciate.

HIPAA Security and Privacy Training

All employees, regardless of whether they interact directly with PHI and ePHI, should receive proper training in HIPAA security and privacy principles. Securance offers classroom- and computer-based training options, with unique modules for:

Compliance

As technology becomes more advanced, regulations become more complicated.

IT Risk Management

IT risk is a major concern for any organization, public or private. To protect your data, your reputation, and your bottom line, you need an effective, dynamic IT risk management strategy.

Governance

Business leaders hesitate to invest in governance because they think of it as an optional expense. IT leaders resist governance because they assume it will result in micromanagement. However, when properly designed and implemented, IT governance makes life easier for both sides.
