Is the information contained in my CareEntrust Health Record secure?
CareEntrust takes privacy and security very seriously. In order to assist in meeting compliance with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) laws, CareEntrust has implemented administrative, physical and technical safeguards to secure health information. For example, each participating provider is limited to accessing the minimum amount of data necessary based on the provider’s role and consumer’s authorization of access. CareEntrust Web site is safeguarded with a Secure Sockets Layer that transmits private application pages through the Internet. A state-of-the-art technology center, which maintains appropriate HIPAA policies and procedures, hosts the CareEntrust Health Record to ensure the physical security of the data. None of the participating companies gain any rights to data collected through this effort.
