HITECH aims to promote using secure, interoperable EHR throughout the U.S. To do that, it has three phases of meaningful use, requiring increasing deployment of EHR, along with quality and security safeguards.
HITECH’s expanded HIPAA compliance requires business partners who use, store, or process PHI to be HIPAA compliant.
At Connected Mind, PHI and electronic security are our first goals. As a business partner, we support your HITECH goals by being HIPAA compliant and using secure Direct Messaging to push mental health results to your EHR.
