| HIPAA Compliance |
|
CosmetiSoft has made and will continue to make every effort to satisfy the regulations that are provided by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA). As these regulations and their interpretation and implementation continues to evolve, CosmetiSoft will continue to be vigilant in its actions to assure all current and future users that we will do our part to assist your office in maintaining HIPAA compliance. More specific details on HIPAA are available online, at the official HIPAA website, http://cms.hhs.gov/hipaa/.
Recognizing your responsibility and how to achieve HIPAA compliance throughout your practice can be a difficult process. Simply using a specific software package, regardless of vendor claims, will not make your office completely HIPAA compliant. However, CosmetiSoft does provide several features that we feel a good practice management system should have to help in your efforts. |
| • |
Through our password-protected user rights, user access to sensitive patient information can be prevented. |
| • |
Our Personal Health Information and Privacy features allow logging of important HIPAA-related transactions and disclosures. |
| • |
Our user-inactivity screen clearing mechanism allows you to automatically hide patient information from outside viewing when workstations are left idle. |
| • |
Our EDI intermediaries provide secure HIPAA compliant data transfer from CosmetiSoft for insurance billing. |
