Timely billing of all accounts is a cornerstone of an effective revenue cycle, and ensuring that all bills are submitted with the correct information is an underlying goal of any billing department. While Patient Access is an easy entity to blame, the source is typically addressed once it is quantified initially and tracked systematically.
The
Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA), now known as HIPAA, mandated many changes to health insurance carriers and health care providers. There are four main areas where the law has changed the way business is conducted in the health care industry.
- Privacy of health information
- Standards for electronic transfers of health information and claims
- Security of electronic health information
- National identifiers for the parties in the transactions
Privacy is the most talked about ruling. These rulings affect all health care records. The Privacy Rule requires covered entities that transmit any health information in electronic form to maintain the confidentiality of all individually identifiable health information.
We at Unitep Healthcare make sure that we train our staff and certify them on the HIPAA rules and guidelines, so that we work effectively and as secured as possible.
Our goal is to position Unitep Healthcare as the Healthcare Information Management Service leader. We will constantly work towards simplification of healthcare provider work by merging healthcare and technology together thus helping healthcare providers offer superior services to patients.
