Risk Management + Area of Focus
HIPAA TOPIC: Securing Patient Information
Use Encrypted Email and Messaging : When sending patient information electronically, always use encrypted email to send patient information. When using messaging or chat please use patient initials.
Verify Recipient Identity: Before sharing any patient information, always verify the identity of the recipient including confirming name and date of birth.
Minimize Information Shared: Share only the minimum necessary information required for the purpose of the communication. Avoid disclosing any additional personal details unless absolutely necessary.
Respect Boundaries with Personal Acquaintances: Employees must not access medical records or information of friends or family. Accessing such information without a legitimate work-related reason is a violation of HIPAA and breaches patient trust.
