HIPAA Compliance


HIPAA rules demand that each encounter be individually identifiable and access controlled. MedEDocs was designed with HIPAA in mind.

Each dictated report is separated and individually identified by job number, dictator, dictation system ID, patient name, MRN transcriptionist, editor, subcontractor (if any), date and time.

Each dictation/document package (Job) contains a tracking system. Throughout the dictation/transcription/distribution process, the tracking system is updated and synchronized with the central database.

Job access, transfer, display and archival are all controlled through NT Security, Advanced SQL server security, and128 bit encryption. MedEDocs is 100% HIPAA compliant.
