HIPAA and HITECH health care compliance consulting

Data security and privacy solutions for health care companies

Compliance with the detailed requirements of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (HITECH) Act regulations is a challenging and time-consuming task. These regulations are in place to protect the personal information of patients and compliance is mandatory. However, many organizations are short on staff or simply don't have the resources with the appropriate knowledge to manage the required compliance demands and address data security concerns.
