John To the best of my knowledge there are no HIPPA compliant solutions that are actually approved
We have installed a ton of links for hospitals and other medical facilities an this issur comes up from time to time. We pretty much tell the customer that we are just a carrier and we encrypt oir data just like verizon does on a T1. And we all know how good that is. HIPPA compliance should beUp to the network administrator. Not the carrier IMHO. Ask someone how your network is not compliant. Its like Y2K all over again Good luck Bob Sent from my Verizon Wireless BlackBerry -----Original Message----- From: John Scrivner <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Mon, 27 Nov 2006 16:16:51 To:[email protected] Subject: [WISPA] Wireless Security biting you in the ass? Wireless broadband security issues have now officially led to my business being put into a bad light due to perceived lack of security. I am a member of a regional broadband planning group that is working with health care and other industry sectors to help deliver broadband options to all areas that need it. Rural Health centers and hospitals are all over the region and most need access to broadband which is highly secure. I need to know what others have done to bring HIPAA compliance assurance to network administrators and hospital personnel so that your solutions are chosen and used for health care connectivity. Currently my services are not being considered do to the perception of a lack of HIPAA security compliance. I need to get on top of this right now and welcome your thoughts and ideas. I would prefer to hear from those of you who have some actual knowledge of delivering HIPAA compliant connections or those who provide equipment which has been documented to meet HIPAA compliance.
