If your business handles electronically protected health information (ePHI), you need to ensure your IT network is HIPAA compliant. But how can you focus on HIPAA compliance and your core business functions? Luckily, you don’t have to focus on both. Instead, you can partner with Reverus, and we can help your network meet all HIPAA compliance IT requirements. Let’s look at our compliance service offerings to show you how they can improve your IT network.
What Do Our HIPAA Compliance Services Provide?
Our HIPAA compliance consulting services keep your network compliant with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996. Overall, that means we make sure patients’ protected health information, such as personal identifying information and financial information, is only accessible to employees who need it to perform their jobs. Often, HIPAA compliance includes keeping all sensitive health information on secure servers. It also includes making sure all payment processing keeps that sensitive information safe. If you work with an IT partner to enact these measures, you will be that much closer to becoming HIPAA compliant. Additionally, you should enact security measures to prevent data breaches from compromising patients’ PHI. Reverus works with you to put all these measures in place and make your network compliant.
Why Is HIPAA Compliance Important?
If your business works with PHI, HIPAA compliance is important because failure to comply can negatively affect your business. If the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) finds you’ve breached any compliance measures, your business could face fines and other serious penalties. Your business could suffer in the wake of these penalties, so it’s best to comply with all relevant HIPAA regulations.
What Is The HIPAA Security Rule?
The HIPAA Security Rule establishes a set of national security standards that govern how businesses can use electronic PHI. It sets the regulations for the safeguards you can use to protect PHI as well as how you can transmit it. Reverus helps you meet all aspects of the Security Rule that pertain to your business. We can also help you meet other aspects of HIPAA, such as the Privacy Rule.

How Does the HIPAA Privacy Rule Affect Your Business?
The HIPAA Privacy Rule sets national standards for how PHI can be shared and submitted electronically. It establishes guidelines for how electronic PHI should be protected as it’s transmitted and used to meet patients’ needs. As with the Security Rule, you can face fines and other penalties if you don’t comply with the Privacy Rule. Reverus can help you keep your network’s records of PHI compliant with the Privacy Rule while you focus on your core business functions.
What Types of Solutions Does Reverus Use to Maintain HIPAA Compliance?
When we improve your business’s HIPAA compliance, we consider how your network is set up. Then we begin putting layers of security in place throughout your network. If your network uses cloud computing environments, then we put extra security layers around those environments and implement measures such as encryption and endpoint authentication. We can also make sure your HIPAA-related data is stored on secure servers and has appropriately limited access controls and audit controls. We’ve gained extensive amounts of experience helping businesses of all sizes comply with HIPAA, so we know how to help your network comply with all relevant HIPAA rules and regulations.
