Telemedicine for the Social Good - June 17, 2015 2:00 PM - 3:00 PM ET
Avizia, Inc.

Telemedicine technology is changing the delivery of healthcare services in order to improve the quality of care, and is largely for those who lack access to necessary care. Therefore, it is easy to say that all telemedicine is in essence for the ‘social good.’ However, when we view the global healthcare crisis we are presented with significant challenges that can only begin to be addressed by the globalization of healthcare.

HIPAA and Encryption: Best Practices
Past Webinar Recording (June 04, 2015)

from OnRamp ACCESS RECORDING: CLICK HERE >>

Data breaches are growing in number in the healthcare industry, due in part to the increasing sophistication of hackers and the rising black-market cost of stolen medical records. Despite the levying of fines and penalties for breaches of Electronic Protected Healthcare Information (ePHI), businesses are still slow to effectively adopt one important IT practice: encryption.

The HIPAA Security Rule requires covered entities and their business associates to implement technical safeguards to protect all ePHI, making specific reference to encryption, access controls, encryption key management, risk management, auditing and monitoring. If your business is not utilizing encryption properly, your data and your HIPAA compliance could be at risk.

Join OnRamp Founder Chad Kissinger and OnRamp Security Engineer Jeremiah Martin as the two discuss the best practices for encrypting ePHI in a manner that exceeds HIPAA’s guidelines.
