Mihi announced that it now complies with the U.S. Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), which sets the national standard for protecting sensitive patient health information.
The compliance verified by a third-party audit confirms that technical; physical; and administrative safeguards, and company policies, and procedures meet HIPAA requirements.
“We are committed to helping our Clients to operate efficiently and grow, no matter what industry they are in or types of products and services they provide. Companies need to trust that their services providers are equally responsible for the security and compliance over protected health information (PHI) and this measure allows us to validate our commitment to data protection. Companies across healthcare, healthcare technology, pharmaceutical, and government industries can rest assured that we meet and exceed HIPAA’s regulatory requirements,” said Gita Bhargava, Chief Operations Officer, Mihi.
Mihi does not collect or store PHI as part of normal business operations; however, any HIPAA-subject Clients relying on Mihi, can enter into a Business Associate Agreement (BAA) with Mihi in which both parties agree to fully comply with the requirements of the HIPAA rules.
“We’ve been making consistent investments in implementing processes and technologies to ensure compliance with all information security and data privacy measures globally. We understand how critical data privacy is for our Clients and their employees. Our compliance with HIPAA further inspires confidence in our commitment to data and information security,” added Rohit Lohia, Chief Innovation Officer.
