HIPAA
Having been heavily involved in medical transcription for the past
7 years, Intercom recognizes the importance of HIPAA regulations,
as well as the significant challenges that HIPAA regulations present
to the healthcare industry. Intercom is committed to helping our
clients achieve HIPAA compliance. To this end, we have created a
governing framework to define and manage our HIPAA initiatives.
Intercom has a full time HIPAA Privacy
Officer to facilitate and manage the information security and
HIPAA needs of our organization as well as for our clients. The
Privacy Officer will develop and maintain effective educational
programs for training internal and external clients on the requirements
of HIPAA as they evolve.
