Subject: RE: Accounting of Disclosures:
I'm new to this lsitserve, so please forgive if this has been covered.
I'm not in the technical arena, although I am my company's privacy officer. And I'm learning a great deal about encryption at the moment.
Here's my question.....If, in order to send an encrypted email both the sender and the receiver must have software to unencrypt (or encrypt), how can we send PHI via email to members/subscribers? Very few members would have such software. How are you handling emailing patients, members, etc?
Thank you,
Deborah Campbell
