How to Stay HIPAA Compliant in The Digital Age

Published: March 19, 2020

Intiva Health’s latest white paper examines the impact of the digital age on the health care industry and the challenges that arise for providers, facilities, and networks as they protect private health information, which is a requirement for HIPAA compliance.

A security breach of a patient’s PHI can have life-altering consequences for the individual, potentially damaging medical records and opening the door for identity theft.

There are two primary challenges that health care facilities must overcome to maintain compliance and mitigate risk. To achieve the balance between cybersecurity and provider responsiveness, health care facilities, networks and their providers need to adopt solutions that provide confidentiality while maintaining accessibility.
