What Does HIPAA Compliance Mean?
HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) is a U.S. law designed to protect sensitive patient information. It sets strict rules for how health data must be stored, shared, and accessed, ensuring that personal medical records and health information remain private. Being HIPAA-compliant means we have implemented industry-standard safeguards to protect your health data from unauthorized access, breaches, and misuse.
