HIPAA regulation presents a challenge to the health care industries and to the customers. It is created for reforming the health care. As a medical transcription company Thuriam recognizes it and is committed to help the clients to achieve HIPAA compliance within the timelines that are recognized by the HIPAA regulations. The governing frame work we have created is used for defining and managing the HIPAA initiatives.

Our HIPAA privacy officer facilitates and manages the HIPAA and information security needs of our organization and for our clients. He is responsible for developing and maintaining effective educational programs for training the internal and external clients which requires HIPAA compliance.

We also understand the fact that the HIPAA regulations are still not been finalized and are subjected to change. Thuriam's principle is to make all the reasonable efforts to be knowledgeable and responsive for HIPAA regulations, reduce paperwork, streamline the inefficiencies of the industry, make it easier to identify and bring to court fraud and mistreatment, and enable the workers from all occupations to change their jobs, thus to achieve HIPAA compliance within the mandated timeline.

We provide the HIPAA compliance requirements like limiting the access to the application by User ID and password, Role - based access, Context - based access, user based access, Auto log off from the application if no activity is performed for certain time, Auto logging to provide an adequate report within the application for the last 12 months if the patient detail is accessed, modified or deleted, User authentication by providing encrypted password and personal identification number.
