What is the role of healthcare IT services?
Healthcare IT services provide protection of patient information with HIPAA compliance services, data backup and security, and seamless communication between stakeholders, even if they are at different locations. Employees, patients, medical providers, and facilities have access to secure data and systems are protected and secure.
HIPAA Compliance
The team at 911 IT understands the importance of keeping patient data safe and secure. HealthIT Security is reporting that 2019 and 2020 were especially interesting years for HIPAA Compliance. An estimated 41.4 million patient records were breached versus 15 million in 2016. The pandemic brought a lull to the activity but it shouldn’t give the industry a sense of security. Ransomware and other attacks are still a real possibility, making HIPAA compliance especially important when it comes to healthcare IT services.
