I had another ISP borrow a trango radio to do a training session at the local college for their hosted medical application. They connected the trango to the network, and then ran a Cisco IPSEC connection over it using PIX firewalls. That was enough to satisfy the HIPAA requirements.

Scriv, 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!

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.
