About BillMD - HIPPA
HIPPA
The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) of 1996 and its regulations ensure the privacy of an individual's health information. Our billing and coding team, transcription teams, and business affiliates comply with HIPAA regulations and Bill MD’s HIPAA policies.
HIPAA not only ensures the privacy of health information but also regulates how Protected Health Information (PHI) is collected, maintained, utilized, and disclosed by healthcare providers and insurance organizations. It mandates the adoption of national standards for electronic healthcare transactions and national identifiers for providers, health plans, and employers, thereby enhancing the use of electronic data interchange.
HIPAA aims to reduce waste, fraud, and abuse in healthcare delivery and insurance, decrease administrative costs, and improve the efficiency of the healthcare system. It also enhances the comprehensiveness and portability of health insurance plans. Health plans are required to certify their HIPAA compliance and may face serious penalties for non-compliance with the latest rules and regulations.
Bill MD HIPAA Compliance
As a reputable medical billing company, Bill MD rigorously adheres to patient information privacy and security rules. All members of our billing and coding consortium, transcription teams, workforce, and business affiliates comply with HIPAA regulations and Bill MD’s HIPAA policies.
At Bill MD, we ensure that our procedures with all clients meet or exceed HIPAA guidelines. We have implemented necessary measures to protect Patient Health Information (PHI). Team members handling patient health information receive training on the privacy and security procedures required for managing this data. This information is disclosed only to authorized clients and employees working on the client's account.
We are responsible for ensuring complete HIPAA compliance for our clients if we handle the operations. However, if a client chooses to work with a local agency connected through us, the responsibility for HIPAA compliance rests with the local agency. While we provide HIPAA guidelines, in the event of a breach, the local agency will be held accountable.
