HIPPA Compliance
HIPAA Compliance – Safeguarding Patient Health Information
The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) is a U.S. federal law designed to ensure the privacy and security of sensitive patient health information. HIPAA compliance is essential for any organization handling Protected Health Information (PHI), requiring stringent physical, network, and process safeguards to prevent unauthorized access or disclosure.
