Information Security and Regulatory Compliance Solutions for Payers and Health Insurers

Ensure the security of confidential patient health information and strengthen compliance with HIPAA regulatory standards with Information Security and Regulatory Compliance Solutions from Dell Perot Systems.

The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) requires that healthcare organizations take reasonable measures to ensure protection of individually identifiable health information.

Electronic data interchanges (EDIs) between health insurers and providers can streamline payer health administrative processes, reduce claims processing expenses, and improve claims metrics. However, healthcare payers must ensure that information exchanged is secure.

Ensuring the security of patient health information and maintaining compliance with HIPAA regulations may help reduce a health insurer's risk of member dissatisfaction, lawsuits, and judgments against the payer organization.

As a member of the Association for Electronic HealthCare Transactions (AFEHCT), Dell Perot Systems has taken a proactive stance to address HIPAA regulations. Our HIPAA Certification and Compliance team has extensive experience in physical, data, and administrative procedure audits and has developed proprietary toolkits for reviewing and evaluating HIPAA compliance for health plans. In addition, we have established alliances with numerous solutions companies to complement our best-fit HIPAA solutions.
