One HIPAA Position Statement
Assist
One is committed to delivering services and products that will assist
our customers in complying with their regulatory requirements under
HIPAA. Assist One is aware that complying with HIPAA is a top priority
as you work to meet transaction, security and privacy regulations.
Because
these new regulations are an important step forward in protecting
patient’s privacy and improving efficiency within the healthcare
industry, Assist One is actively engaged in providing information
to help you identify and resolve many of the patient care and business
issues you may face as you implement actions to comply with HIPAA.
In
our Healthcare practice, Assist One provides not only technical
and workflow recommendations for products, IT systems and services,
but also offers additional healthcare consulting services that focus
on developing and enhancing existing business and technology processes
in your organization to achieve and maintain HIPAA compliance.
Our
products, software and services already incorporate many of the
core HIPAA requirements. We are committed to working with you, our
customer, to provide additional value to help you meet the continuing
HIPAA challenge.
A
software package alone, cannot be "HIPAA compliant," nor can it
confer that status. To be in compliance with HIPAA is an ongoing
process of organizational maintenance, as such, our customers will
need to address policies and procedures that go beyond the functionality
of our software. For example, the HIPAA privacy provisions may require
changes to your office policies and procedures, or your computer
system or network security may need to be enhanced. All of these
areas working together will assist your organization in achieving
and maintaining HIPAA compliance.
Finally,
If you have questions and concerns about achieving HIPAA compliance
for your organization, we encourage each of our customers to contact
us and let us help you gain an understanding of the HIPAA regulations,
evaluate their impact on your operations, and let us help you prepare
your organization to achieve and maintain HIPAA compliance.
