1 WHITE PAPER SUPPORTING YOUR HIPAA COMPLIANCE EFFORTS Quanti Solutions. Advancing HIM through Innovation HEALTHCARE
2 SUPPORTING YOUR HIPAA COMPLIANCE EFFORTS Quanti Solutions. Advancing HIM through Innovation PRODUCT DESCRIPTION The Quanti HIM product suite provides coding and copliance solutions, as well as health inforation anageent odules to support abstracting, chart copletion, chart location, and requests for copies of edical records. EDM, the electronic docuent iaging product, is also built on the Quanti platfor. Since these products contain individually identifiable inforation about patients, healthcare providers ust evaluate their use as part of their HIPAA copliance efforts. Soeties we re asked the question, Are these products HIPAA-copliant? Readers of the security regulations recognize that the regulations are ulti-faceted and coplex, requiring covered entities to assess the risks to their electronic inforation, anage those risks, train their workforces, ipleent physical and technical safeguards, develop and ipleent policies and procedures, and contract with their business associates. All of these activities contribute to the covered entity s copliance with HIPAA. Software applications, like the Quanti HIM suite, should contain appropriate security features to support the covered entity s copliance efforts, but they, in and of theselves, are not HIPAA-copliant. REGULATORY OVERVIEW The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) and federal regulations proulgated under the Act outline specific protections for health inforation that identifies individuals. Covered entities, organizations that ust coply with HIPAA, include health plans, healthcare clearinghouses, and healthcare providers who transit certain transactions (such as healthcare clais) electronically. The HIPAA privacy regulations govern how protected health inforation ay be used and disclosed. The HIPAA security regulations outline specific easures that ust be ipleented to protect the security of electronic protected health inforation. To coply with the security regulations, healthcare organizations and other covered entities ust: Ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of all electronic protected health inforation that they create, receive, aintain, or transit; Protect against reasonably anticipated threats to the security or integrity of the inforation; Protect against reasonably anticipated uses or disclosures that are not peritted under the regulations; and Ensure workforce copliance. 2
3 PROTECTED HEALTH INFORMATION HIPAA s protections apply to health inforation that identifies individuals. This inforation, known as protected health inforation, includes any inforation that pertains to an individual s past or current health history, treatent, or payent for healthcare services. Inforation is considered to identify an individual if the inforation contains one or ore of the following data eleents: Nae Street address City, county, or precinct Postal (zip) code (Note: It is acceptable to cobine all zip codes with the sae three initial digits, if that cobined geographic unit contains ore than 20,000 people) Dates, including birth date, adission date, discharge date, and date of death Age (if the individual is 90 years old or older) Telephone nubers Fax nubers Electronic ail addresses Social security nuber Medical record nuber License nubers (such as driver s license) Vehicle identifiers and serial nubers, including license plate nubers; Full face photographic iages Any other unique identifying nuber, characteristic, or code Although not required by the HIPAA security regulations, role-based access represents an industry best practice. It allows users to be assigned specific access privileges on a need to know basis giving users access to the inforation needed to do their jobs. Eleents of PHI contained in specific Quanti products are outlined in Exhibit A. ROLE-BASED ACCESS Although not required by the HIPAA security regulations, role-based access represents an industry best practice. It allows users to be assigned specific access privileges on a need to know basis giving users access to the inforation they need to do their jobs. Quanti Solutions support role-based access by allowing clients to establish their own user groups, defining the specific access privileges each group should have. Depending on the odule, users ay be given such privileges as viewing, editing, adding new data, aking status changes, archiving inforation, and configuring or printing reports. 3
4 MINIMUM NECESSARY When using or disclosing protected health inforation, covered entities ust ake reasonable efforts to liit the inforation to the iniu necessary to accoplish the intended purpose of the use or disclosure. Quanti Solutions support this requireent by allowing syste adinistrators to assign user privileges based on their job requireents. All Quanti Solutions allow confidentiality levels 1-5 to be assigned to further liit user access. All patients are assigned Level 1 (open access) by default, but the syste adinistrator ay define ore restrictive confidentiality levels in 2-5. Mass copying, printing, or downloading of data is restricted. Printing is assigned as a specific perission, and only one record or page ay be printed at a tie. We recognize that security solutions are not one-size-fitsall, so any of these security features are flexible, allowing clients to set the paraeters that best eet the needs of their organizations. In EDM, docuent types are hidden fro view if the user has not been given access privileges for that docuent type. EDM also allows docuents to be assigned a confidential security status. These docuents ay be accessed only by users with confidential access privileges. CONFIDENTIALITY LEVELS To assure confidentiality for high-profile patients or those who have requested restrictions, a confidentiality level of 1-5 ay be assigned to each patient. All patients are assigned Level 1 (open access) by default, but the syste adinistrator ay define ore restrictive confidentiality levels in 2-5. PRODUCT SECURITY FEATURES To support healthcare providers in coplying with the HIPAA security regulations, Quanti Solutions include a nuber of security features. We recognize that security solutions are not one-size-fits-all, so any of these security features are flexible, allowing syste adinistrators to set the paraeters that best eet the needs of their organizations. Product security features are outlined in Exhibit B. 4
