Get Hip to HIPAA

The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) provides guidelines that providers should use to handle medical records (MR) and private health information (PHI). Some examples include the following.

  • All facilities should use a tracking and logging system for MR and PHI when they’re in use, in storage or being moved.
  • MR and PHI should be stored in a controlled-access, secure facility that is locked and alarm-monitored.
  • When moving MR and PHI from one location to another, patients’ identities must be hidden throughout the move.

Data Storage

While many physicians and other health providers still use paper, and many patients still prefer it, electronic record-keeping is the norm.

CPOE (computerized physician order entry) and electronic health records (EHR) have made it much easier to track and find health information. For patients trying to get their records, confirm a prescription or schedule follow-up appointments, it’s extremely helpful to have that data easily available.

Healthcare providers also find it invaluable to track each patient’s history when making treatment decisions and other recommendations.

Now imagine if that data’s security were breached. It would be a disaster.

Don’t let that nightmare keep you awake. Victory Archives is the right choice, rely on our specialized training and experience in handling, transporting and storing medical records and private health data.
