Learn how Rublon MFA can help protect Electronic Health Records (EHR) systems and comply with HITECH and HIPAA compliance requirements.
Scenario
A healthcare provider uses an Electronic Health Records (EHR) system, such as Epic, Cerner, Allscripts, NextGen Healthcare, or Athenahealth, to store and manage patient information.
Challenge
Ensuring that access to EHR systems is secure to protect patient privacy and comply with HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) and HITECH (Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act) regulations.
Solution
Implement Rublon MFA for all logins to the EHR system. Each login requires an additional verification step, such as a push notification, a FIDO security key, or OTP.
Benefits
By using Rublon MFA, the healthcare provider ensures that even if a user’s password is compromised, unauthorized access to patient records is prevented. This enhances patient privacy, reduces the risk of data breaches, and helps the provider comply with HIPAA and HITECH regulations, safeguarding sensitive patient information.
