The Health Insurance Portability
and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) and proposed regulations (Proposed
45 CFR §142.310), establish new standards for safeguarding electronic
medical records and using electronic signatures, for example, to execute
electronic informed consents by patients, initiate claims, approve claims,
and other purposes.
- Identifiable
patient data is best
protected by
comprehensive, secure document encryption. XKI™ delivers at substantial
cost savings.
- XKI™ meets
proposed HIPAA requirements for electronic and digital signatures as
well as existing federal requirements of the Electronic Signatures in
Global and National Commerce Act, 15 USC, Chapter 96, section 7001 et
seq. and regulations of the Food and Drug Administration for Electronic
Records and Electronic Signatures, 21 CFR §11.3(5).
- X.12 formatted
communications and XML mappings require flexible tools for encryption
and signing. XKI™ provides them.
- On the other
hand, unrestricted freely available encryption may interfere with health
care regulatory activities intended to combat insurance fraud. XKI's™
dual-level of encryption removes this threat without unduly exposing
patient data to unauthorized disclosure.
Other
features include:
- Ease of use.
- Low cost administration.
- Optional integration
of biometrics.
- Audit
trails that are easily organized into confidential reports.
- Clearly
defined, machine recognizable limits on authority, including practice
and licensing limitations.
