Why HIPAA Compliant Printing Is Crucial for For Healthcare Providers

Cyberattacks and leaked information is probably the first thing that comes to mind when you hear the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) has been breached. Designed to ensure that protected health information is secured, HIPAA plays a major role in protecting private materials, primarily for the healthcare industry. It also prevents healthcare-related fraud and adds valuable safeguards to protect sensitive materials. 

Having a HIPAA compliant printing partner guarantees that these security-focused steps are implemented throughout the printing process to protect your client’s personal and health-related information. Read on to learn more about the importance of HIPAA printing, and how NextPage can help. 

3 Benefits of Partnering with a HIPAA Compliant Printer

Without using HIPAA compliant direct mail and printing services, you could be unknowingly risking your client’s security and missing out on these unique benefits. 

1. HIPAA certification creates instant credibility for healthcare providers from patrons (patients, families, etc.) who are trusting that organization with their information. Using a certified HIPAA printing partner strengthens that bond and offers a unique value proposition. In addition, you can communicate that you prioritize your clients’ security from the first moment, going above-and-beyond even by working with a HIPAA-compliant printing partner who has the same high standards for privacy and security.
2. With cybersecurity breaches and identity theft becoming more prevalent every day, HIPAA printing provides additional peace of mind to not just your clients, but to you as a healthcare provider. You can rest assured knowing your practice’s sensitive information is protected while you continue to provide top-tier care, without worrying about legal compliance in printing: your HIPAA printer will handle that for you.
3. Failure to adhere to HIPAA compliance not only places your clients’ information at risk, it can result in significant fines and other repercussions that may damage your practice (or worse, force it’s closure). Optimizing your budget and other resources—without concern of HIPAA violations, unintentional or otherwise—is simpler when your printing partner also follows HIPAA guidelines.

Even knowing the value HIPAA compliant printing can bring to your healthcare company, finding the right HIPAA printer can be a challenge.
