We implement robust security measures and are in complete compliance with HIPAA regulations.
The phrase HIPAA compliance and medical billing relates to transactions such as eligibility checks, authorization requests, claims, and remittances, and there are different HIPAA compliance requirements depending on whether billing is performed inhouse or outsourced.
The HIPAA regulations, including the much-publicized Patient Privacy and Security regulations, are a series of legislation that portray the US Government’s efforts to regulate the healthcare industry. HIPAA insists that any organization that stores or transmits patient information must take enterprise-wide steps to adhere to HIPAA’s sweeping privacy, security and transactions standards. Essentially, HIPAA requires healthcare entities to ensure that they protect personal health information and the privacy rights of patients.
We have undertaken various steps and designed our process to ensure we are fully compliant. Our entire network is very secure. All clients’ office records are temporarily stored behind a secure firewall before deletion and all electronic claims are securely encrypted for transmission. Your privacy and security are given the highest priority at ParaMed Billing Solutions.
Healthcare organizations requiring further advice about HIPAA compliance or the changes to regulations that are happening at state and local level, are advised to seek independent compliance advice.
