Healthcare Solutions
As a HIPAA covered entity, you face unique challenges around the control and access of electronic patient health information (PHI). At SCC, we understand those challenges and are here to help. Access Auditor helps you meet many of the requirements of Security and Privacy Rules related to information access management.
HIPAA privacy regulations require that the use of personal health information (PHI) be limited to only what is necessary for treatment. You need to protect that information from other uses such as research and marketing. HIPAA security regulations further impose requirements mandating formal security policies and procedures for granting different levels of access to PHI.
The primary component of these requirements involves limiting access to PHI and establishing a certification process where access rights are periodically reviewed for correctness.
Because of the typically high number of users and the constantly changing nature of most healthcare companies, control of access rights to PHI can be extremely challenging.
Access Auditor from SCC is designed to meet many HIPAA-related objectives through the use of automated data consolidation and certification workflows. Some of the key benefits of Access Auditor include:
- Detect and terminate users access to systems that contain electronic patient health information
- Limit access through separation of duties rules
- Automate the periodic review and certification of access to PHI
- Facilitate removal of access privileges from terminated users
- Enforce policies and procedures that grant access to electronic PHI
