Health Information Compliance Alert
READERS!
I'd like to provide you with even more of the valuable guidance you've come to expect from Health Information Compliance Alert. I look forward to speaking with you! Kelly Quiones, Editor
With the April 21, 2005 HIPAAsecurity rule compliance deadline on the horizon, are you worried about how your organization will meet the rule's demands? Do your options seem to be a toss up between two unknowns: Go with what you've got and risk noncompliance or spend your budget on technology that may (or may not) meet your needs?
This is where I enter. You tell me which technologies you are considering, and I'll have one of Eli's security experts both test and evaluate it -- at no extra cost to you! Just call (888) 779-3718 ext. 330 or send an e-mail to kellyq@eliresearch.com. First we'll discuss your questions and concerns, then I'll get you answers.
