Protected Health Information (PHI) under the legislation of the U.S. government comprises all information related to a person’s medical history, health status, all the information about a patient’s healthcare and any payment related to the healthcare services availed.
All of the above information is created, stored and transmitted by multiple HIPAA-covered entities. When we talk about healthcare and life sciences outsourcing services, the outsourcing partner also needs to be HIPAA compliant.
At ARDEM, we are proud to say that we already have our HIPAA compliances in place with our current security policies to secure sensitive patient data including PII and PHI data.
