We are aware that as a medical transcription
service, we are considered a “Business Associate” as defined in the
Health Insurance Portability Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA). We take
our obligations under this Act very seriously and are proactive in
complying with our responsibilities.
Through our “Affiliations”
and
research, we are kept informed regarding the latest developments of HIPAA
and specific actions to take to comply with the regulations. Through a
“Chain of Trust Partner Agreement” with your medical facility, we offer a
solution to the challenge of HIPAA compliance with respect to your
transcription service.
