HIPAA
US healthcare privacy regulation governing protected health information.
Definition
HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) is a US federal law that establishes standards for protecting sensitive patient health information (PHI) from disclosure without patient consent.
In Depth
HIPAA compliance for messaging platforms requires encryption in transit and at rest, access controls, audit logging, Business Associate Agreements (BAAs), and breach notification procedures. Healthcare organisations must ensure that any communication platform handling PHI meets these requirements.
Lodgestory offers HIPAA-ready infrastructure for healthcare customers, including encrypted messaging, audit logs, and BAA agreements.
