Arroyo Grande Dental Care Confirmed as HIPAA Compliant
Arroyo Grande Dental Care has recently been confirmed as having implemented policies, procedures, and practices that met or exceeded the federally mandated standards of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) Rules.
Dental practices are required to comply with the provisions of the HIPAA Privacy Rule, Security Rule, Omnibus Rule, Breach Notification Rule, and the standards of the HITECH Act. HIPAA compliance can be complex, so to ensure full compliance many practices seek assistance from compliance vendors.
Arroyo Grande Dental Care partnered with Compliancy Group and used its proven HIPAA compliance methodology to ensure full compliance, tracking progress using Compliancy Group’s proprietary HIPAA compliance tracking software, The Guard.
“We as a private practice chose Compliancy Group and The Guard to take us through HIPAA compliance because it was recommended and it has benefited our office by keeping all of our staff aware of how secure things need to be, being HIPAA compliant is a priority of ours, we as an office strive to keep our patients and their health history safe and secure,” said Arroyo Grande Dental Care, in a statement. “We can confidently say that we are in compliance with HIPAA and look forward to continuing to protect all of our patients.”
