Healthcare/HIPAA

HIPAA Requirements Keep Changing! Let Us Help You Keep Up

The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) changed the health care industry forever when it passed in 1996, imposing new privacy rules to protect the rights of patients. Since then, especially when periodic changes are made to the law, the effects of HIPAA are still felt.

Compliance with the requirements imposed by HIPAA is vital for any health care professional, practice or institution.

Land Shark Shredding is committed to helping such businesses keep up with HIPAA requirements and avoid the consequences of noncompliance.
