In response to client demand, Hyperion Global Partners has released the HITECH Risk Assessment Starter Kit.
The first requirement of the new law is to complete a risk assessment to determine your firm's current level of HIPAA Privacy and Security Rule compliance.
Not only is it a government requirement, it is also the most efficient means of understanding the privacy/security landscape within your Firm. If you do not understand the location of and movement of Protected Health Information across your Firm, you cannot ensure mitigation all of the potential risks that PHI is at for loss or inappropriate disclosure.
