I carry 2 hospitals and 4 clinics in N. Louisiana and are their primary
internet connections. We had this discussion last year and a simple VPN from
their router to my core router was more than sufficient to meet HIPPA
guidelines. HIPPA "compliance" is a very vague area!

Great questions, Marlon!
You are correct that it is application/data encryption needed, not

Every hospital has a HIPAA Officer. Talk to that person. By 2009, they
