HPS’s
product lines have been enhanced to accommodate HIPAA data
content. HPS’s HIPAA Implementation Team is comprised
of highly skilled, dedicated, and focused resources to facilitate
the successful implementation of HIPAA Transaction and Code
Set Standards.
HPS’s policies and procedures are consistent with
HIPAA Privacy and Security Standards for the secure transmission,
use and management of protected health information. HPS
will incorporate the required safeguards to meet or exceed
the HIPAA Privacy and Security standards. HPS takes data
privacy seriously. We protect the privacy and security of
patients and we enthusiastically support the HIPAA privacy
standards.
HPS has implemented the HIPAA Privacy regulations through
a coordinated corporate effort to identify all uses of protected
information, reinforce and develop policies to protect that
information.
As part of its privacy compliance, HPS will supply its customers
with the required Business Associate Agreement for customer
signature. This agreement represents that HPS will maintain
the privacy of protected healthcare information received
in the course of normal business activities.
In addition, HPS uses advanced security technologies to
protect the information it processes from intrusion. As
part of its privacy compliance effort, HPS implements security
practices in advance of the final HIPAA Security regulations.
