HIPAA Security Made Simple
Alert Compliance is a company dedicated to helping the small and medium-size Health Care Provider protect their patients' private information, stay in business in case of emergencies or natural disaster and comply with the legal requirements.
The Power of Knowledge
The small medical provider is, at this moment, facing a dilemma: “How will I comply with the Governmental Regulations, without going broke?”
You have two choices:
Be proactive and begin to install protections (and they can be physical, technical or administrative as spelled out in the law) that will allow you to detect and prevent trouble down the road, by contacting Alert Compliance, or
Do nothing about computer security and risk playing catch-up when an attack, accident, or natural disaster causes harm to a patient or your practice.
Computer security is needed to protect you and your practice from legal liability if private information is released by your practice.
Computer security is only as good as the weakest link in your office. Missing or un-enforced security policies, lack of personal responsibility (by not using or sharing passwords or not logging the access to sensitive files), missing locks, will completely undermine the security system and are against the law, under HIPAA Security Rule.

Security Consulting Firms are expensive, the software available can be confusing and the results still need to be interpreted. Most providers are just happy to have their systems work, without any regard to security.
Here at Alert Compliance, the focus is on you, the small medical provider and your patients. We know how busy you are and the fact that you care about your patients.
We also know how confusing the regulations and computers can sometimes be and the fact that you may not have the time to keep up with all the new things happening in the computer security field. Most computer technicians can network your computers and give you internet access, but they are not security gurus.
“Don't try this at home, call Alert Compliance!”
