A Simplified Solution for MU/HIPAA Security Risk Analysis

NextGen Healthcare is pleased to offer a new simplified solution to help you meet your data security obligations under HIPAA and Meaningful Use (MU).

What Is a Security Risk Analysis?

Under Meaningful Use, providers must annually perform and document a thorough Security Risk Analysis (SRA) as outlined under HIPAA. In the event of an MU audit, providers who fail to produce adequate SRA documentation are faced with giving back MU incentives and subject to the MU payment adjustment.

Aside from the MU requirement, the recent HIPAA Omnibus Law introduces increased penalties in the event of a breach by medical practices that did not conduct a proper SRA.

How Can NextGen Healthcare Help?

NextGen Healthcare has partnered with HIPAAOne® to offer a comprehensive SRA solution that meets MU and HIPAA requirements while helping you protect patient health information and manage risk to your organization.

HIPAAOne®, the most comprehensive and affordable HIPAA compliance software in the industry, allowing practices to streamline compliance and produce a comprehensive SRA. The cloud-based  HIPAAOne® tool incorporates role-based interviews that literally walk your practice through the SRA process.

In combination with the HIPAAOne® tool, NextGen Healthcare is offering training packages to help you get started. Based on the specific needs of your practice, you can receive basic HIPAAOne® training or more comprehensive SRA services to help you build a comprehensive HIPAA compliance program.
