Regulatory Implications

For healthcare providers, security, compliance and privacy mandates signify a considerable change from hallway fax machines or unsecured, standalone fax devices of yesterday. Today, the challenges of achieving compliance with HIPAA can be daunting. While healthcare providers often use fax and e-mail because they are convenient and cost-efficient, these methods may not be secure and can lead to intercepted or misdirected documents, resulting in a breach of patient confidentiality.

The Impact of Electronic Medical Records

Electronic Medical Records need to exist in a format such that all relevant parties such as providers, pharmacies and third-party physicians can share patient information for timely, patient-centered and portable care. Document handling solutions such as AccuRoute provide the document delivery vehicles necessary to share information instantaneously.

Insuring Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery

Whether naturally occurring or manmade, disasters directly impact healthcare providers and their ability to resume normal operations and ensure the security of their patient information. Paper-based patient information is extremely volatile and prone to accidental destruction. To recover quickly and effectively, healthcare providers should consider storing replicated documents in a secure offsite location with electronic "back-ups" of all paper documents. Many healthcare providers are opting to capture hardcopies and store them electronically to ensure immediate access in the event of a disaster. Distributed document capture solutions such like AccuRoute provide highly distributed and secure document delivery platforms.
