Hospitals and doctors’ offices must comply with the Heath Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA). HIPAA requires safeguards to protect the security and confidentiality of patient health information (PHI). These safeguards include the secure receipt, handling, storage, transmittal and disposal of PHI.
HIPAA compliance, in terms of document and electronic media destruction, includes the requirement for health organizations to do due diligence in choosing a reliable vendor for the secure disposal of PHI.
SecurShred’s annual AAA certification by the National Association of Information Destruction (NAID) ensures that our employees, facilities, equipment and processes meet stringent security guidelines to ensure HIPPA compliance.
