The Health Insurance Portability  and Accountability Act (HIPAA) mandates that healthcare facilities and others who have access to Protected Health Information (PHI) take significant precautions to ensure the security and privacy of patient data. Healthcare facilities, commonly referred to as Covered Entities under HIPAA, must follow strict security measures or face penalties for violating the law. As such, it is essential that all healthcare providers partner with a HIPAA-compliant medical transcription company, like GlobalMed, to safeguard PHI. Hospitals, clinics, and private practices in the United States must comply with HIPAA and HITECH regulations to protect sensitive patient information. GlobalMed is committed to meeting HIPAA compliance requirements.
