HIPAA Policy

Last Updated: December 10, 2019

 

iCoreConnect and Florida ePrescribing Software (iCoreRx) is committed to maintaining the confidentiality and trust placed in us by our customers. We protect individually identifiable personal and health information such as names, addresses, and Protected Health Information (collectively “PHI”).

 

iCoreConnect protects the confidentiality of PHI it receives by adhering to the requirements of the HIPAA Privacy Rule and the HIPAA Security Rule. The Privacy Rule governs the acquisition, storage, transfer and retention of PHI, in both electronic and paper formats. The Security Rule covers all information acquired, maintained or transferred electronically. We comply with all business associate obligations under HIPAA/HITECH, enabling us to provide the highest level of service to our customers. iCoreConnect follows the policies and practices it has documented in its internal HIPAA Policy. These documents cover areas such as:

• Physical security of electronic equipment used to acquire and store PHI

• Technical safeguards to prevent unauthorized access to PHI

• Training and awareness for staff members who have access to PHI

 

We respect the privacy of PHI and take securing your and your patients’ data seriously. iCoreConnect’s services are HIPAA ready and enable practices using the system to comply with its obligations as a Covered Entity.

 

This is not legal advice.  You are responsible for ensuring compliance of your patient communication and your patient data security.
