A HIPAA Infraction Can Happen When You Least Expect It. Are You Prepared?

It’s easy to take for granted. Every time you input a patient’s private health information (PHI), you’re making a powerful promise to keep it safe. What the team at PCS has discovered over decades of collective experience in this field is that most eye care practices are deeply concerned with protecting patient privacy — but they don’t always understand how to eliminate gaps that threaten this mission. Ask yourself these questions: Is your optometry team educated on the potential violations that they could unknowingly encounter? Have you adopted new digital solutions recently that may present gaps in your ability to secure PHI? Practice Compliance Solutions delivers HIPAA compliance management customized by our expert team to ensure optometry and ophthalmology practices’ securely handle patient data.
