HIPAA Simplified – Compliance & Privacy

HIPAA’s five main components include:

  • HIPAA Title I makes it possible to maintain coverage when your employment changes and you’re on a group plan. It makes it unlawful for group insurance plans to turn down people they don’t want to cover or to build lifetime maximums into contracts.
  • HIPAA Title II directs the U.S. Dept of Health and Human Services to establish national standards for processing electronic healthcare transactions. Healthcare organizations are required to implement secure electronic access to health data and to remain in compliance with HHS privacy regulations
  • HIPAA Title III introduces new tax rules for healthcare treatments.
  • HIPAA Title IV additional reforms of insurance law, with protections for those with pre-existing conditions and individuals who want to maintain their insurance.
  • HIPAA Title V guidelines for business owned life insurance policies and how to handle income tax specifics when someone has their US citizenship revoked.

As an industry leader, ADL Data is committed to helping our health care partners seamlessly navigate the path to compliance. ADL Data has created HIPAA Simplified webpages for this purpose. We intend for HIPAA Simplified to be a living site which will be updated with new information and guidance.

Application Security – Protecting Your Data

The ADL Security module is integrated with the user Interfaces and support all the different Authentication methods that are needed by the various technologies that are integrated with the operating system. Most of these devices have specific drivers and protocols that need to be used. Most are not supported by Microsoft’s Active Directory Services.

The ADL Security module supports Active Directory and the users passwords can be controlled via the Active Directory which will automatically synchronize with the ADL Security module.
