Abstract

Are you doing enough to control security and privacy at your practice? Could you cope if your organization suffered a disaster that destroyed facilities, business documents and patient records? Although Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) security and privacy rules focus on patient health information, they also point the way to a more comprehensive approach to managing risk. By using HIPAA rules as a blueprint, you can design policies and procedures to address everything from safeguarding financial information to protecting the personal safety of patients, physicians and staff.
