HIPAA Administrative Simplification reduces the costs and administrative burdens of health care by adopting and requiring the use of standardized, electronic transmission of administrative and financial transactions. The Administrative Simplification also requires the protection of private health information.

Data is kept secure and private. We secure data files by encrypting and storing them on our servers. By encrypting files, we have significantly reduced the risk of unwanted eyes peering though data. Only our proprietary components have the ability decipher the encrypted data. This encryption also provides data integrity, which prevents any malicious attempt to manipulate the data that we have received from the submitter. As an added measure for non-repudiation, we track and log all user and employee transaction via (SIDs) Security Identifiers. Each user and employee is issued a SID, which uniquely identifies him or her in our system.
