Security And HIPAA Compliance
Pymed empowers you to elevate your medical practice with our cutting-edge software. HIPAA Compliant data practices keep your data safe from bad actors.
A Foundation of Trust
At Pymed, we understand that trust is the foundation of modern healthcare. Protecting your patients' sensitive information is not just a regulatory requirement; it is our most critical responsibility. Our platform is built upon a comprehensive security and compliance framework designed to safeguard your practice from risk, ensure data integrity, and meet the stringent requirements of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA).
Pymed's Approach to HIPAA Compliance
HIPAA sets the standard for protecting sensitive patient data. Our adherence to its rules is integrated into every aspect of our technology and operations.
The HIPAA Security Rule: We implement and maintain advanced administrative, physical, and technical safeguards to protect electronic Protected Health Information (ePHI). This includes everything from strict access controls and data encryption to comprehensive employee training and security incident response plans.
The HIPAA Privacy Rule: Our platform provides the necessary controls to ensure ePHI is used and disclosed appropriately, empowering you to uphold patient privacy rights. We ensure that your data is your data, and we act as its responsible steward.
The HIPAA Breach Notification Rule: In the unlikely event of a data breach, we have established clear protocols to ensure affected parties are notified promptly and transparently, in full accordance with federal and state regulations. We execute a Business Associate Agreement (BAA) with all our clients, contractually affirming our commitment and legal responsibility to protect your ePHI.
Verified Security: Our Industry-Standard Certifications
To validate our security posture, we subject our systems to rigorous, independent audits against the most respected standards in the industry.
