All Trans Software Inc, a Ramsey, MN-based provider of Non-Emergency Medical Transportation (NEMT) software solutions to transportation vendors, has been confirmed as having implemented an effective HIPAA compliance program by Compliancy Group.
Vendors of software solutions that collect, process, store, or transmit protected health information (PHI) are classed as business associates under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act and are required to comply with certain provisions of the HIPAA Rules, including implementing safeguards to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of PHI and controls to prevent unauthorized access to PHI.
As a provider of NEMT software solutions, All Trans Software solutions come into contact with PHI and the company is therefore required to comply with the HIPAA Rules. To ensure the company and its software solutions met and exceeded the regulatory standards of the HIPAA Rules, All Trans Software partnered with Compliancy Group.
Compliancy Group has developed an easy-to-follow HIPAA compliance methodology that HIPAA-covered entities and business associates can use to ensure they are fully compliant with all appropriate provisions of the HIPAA Rules. Progress along the compliance journey can be tracked using Compliancy Group’s proprietary software solution – The Guard.
All Trans Software used The Guard and completed Compliancy Group’s HIPAA compliance process, which includes a 6-stage risk analysis and remediation program. After successfully completing that process, Compliancy Group confirmed All Trans Software’s good faith effort toward HIPAA compliance and awarded the company the HIPAA Seal of Compliance.
The HIPAA Seal of Compliance demonstrates that All Trans Software has achieved compliance with the HIPAA Rules and has an effective HIPAA compliance program to ensure continued compliance.
