What is HIPAA?

HIPAA, the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, establishes national standards for protecting patient health information, particularly in electronic healthcare transactions. It applies to healthcare providers, health plans, and healthcare clearinghouses, mandating strict confidentiality and security measures. 

The act also restricts the use and disclosure of health information without patient authorization while ensuring patients have the right to access and request corrections to their health records. Additionally, HIPAA provides guidelines for the legal and ethical handling of personal health information in the healthcare industry.

A Step Forward for Relevant Software

This achievement is not just a compliance milestone but also a testament to the company’s commitment to providing secure and reliable services to its clients, especially in the healthcare sector. With HIPAA compliance, Relevant Software can assure its clients in the healthcare industry and beyond that their data is handled with the utmost care and security.

Looking to the Future

HIPAA compliance opens new avenues for Relevant Software, allowing it to engage more deeply with healthcare clients and others who require the highest level of data protection. It’s a significant step in the company’s journey towards excellence in software development and data security.
