Rehmann Confirmed as HIPAA Compliant
The Troy, MI-based fully integrated professional advisory and asset management firm, Rehmann, has recently been confirmed as being in full compliance with the federally mandated standards of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and the HITECH Act.
As a service provider to healthcare organizations, Rehmann is classed as a business associate and is therefore required to comply with the HIPAA Rules. The HIPAA standards govern the privacy, security, and integrity of sensitive healthcare data called Protected Health Information (PHI) and any individually identifiable healthcare-related information. Any entity within Rehmann that is covered under HIPAA makes the firm responsible for all data that contains PHI.
To ensure full compliance with the standards and implementation specifications of the HIPAA Privacy Rule, Security Rule, Breach Notification Rule, Omnibus Rule, and the HITECH Act, Rehmann partnered with Compliancy Group.
Rehmann used Compliancy Group’s proven compliance methodology, which includes a 6-stage risk analysis and remediation process and annual audits of policies and procedures, with progress tracked using Compliancy Group’s proprietary HIPAA compliance software – The Guard. After successfully completing that process and all required 2022 audits, Rehmann was awarded the HIPAA Seal of Compliance.
