CMS' Information Request for Compliance Reviews

CMS is now suggesting that they will proactively examine facilities' HIPAA/security compliance.  This is new.  In the past, CMS would only review a facility with a report filed against them from a patient or payor.

ICE is well versed in all aspects of security, and we have developed a comprehensive methodology for auditing a healthcare provider's information technology environment, as well as the supporting policies and procedures.

Using the ISO 17799 Security Standard as a base, we have added our nearly 20 years of healthcare experience to organize an extensive set of best practices that will secure your IT environment and put your facility in line with HIPAA.

Our Information Security Audit practice provides a comprehensive evaluation and risk assessment of both your network infrastructure and your IT policies and procedures. We will make recommendations for eliminating security vulnerabilities and provide the required steps for achieving compliance.
