 Privacy
Covered entities must safeguard protected health information. Privacy rules are complex, fill hundreds of pages in the Federal Register, and require that you comply with state privacy laws. Compliance includes using new policies, procedures, and forms; your staff must be also trained properly.
|
 Transactions
Healthcare providers, health plans, and others using electronic transactions such as claim processing must make sure that transactions meet the required format and content. Billing codes and identifiers must also meet requirements. |
 Security
Covered entities must ensure the confidentiality, integrity and availability of electronic protected health information. Security rules are every bit as complex as privacy rules, and compliance may require investment in security technologies, as well as implementing new policies and procedures.
