NEWPORT
BEACH CA USA -- HIT/HIPAA UPDATE NEWS SERVICE™ -- APRIL 29, 2010: HIPAA
regulations, the HITECH Act, and State mandates such as California,
Massachusetts and others require that policies be developed, approved and
communicated to all members of your workforce. HIPAA requires that
organizations (e.g. covered entities and business associates), “implement reasonable and
appropriate policies and procedures to comply with the standards,
implementation specifications, or other requirements of the
regulation.” Policies set the "dial-tone"
for meeting compliance mandates in your organization.
The ecfirst Policy templates address mandates for key regulations such as
HIPAA, HITECH, as well as the ISO 27002 security standard and PCI DSS v1.2.
Are your policies
updated to meet the requirements of HIPAA Privacy, HIPAA Security, State
regulations and the HITECH Act? Are you considering developing policies
based on the ISO 27000 global information security standard?
The
ecfirst Resource Center is rich in its library of privacy and information
security policy templates. You may download policies to address regulatory
requirements in the areas of:
- HIPAA Privacy Rule
- HIPAA Security Rule
- HITECH Data Breach Notification
- ISO 27002 – Global Information
Security Standard
- PCI DSS v1.2
