What Is HITRUST?
HITRUST provides a prescriptive framework for attaining and remaining in HIPAA compliance. It offers guidelines for meeting HIPAA standards, providing a consistent approach to the detailed HIPAA guidelines.
The Benefits of HITRUST
HITRUST is a recognizable certification that tells people you have met predetermined guidelines. HITRUST standardizes the approach in an industry that requires validation and documentation of how privacy regulations are carried out. When someone sees you have achieved HITRUST certification, that tells them you are committed to meeting higher standards for compliance. Other benefits of HITRUST include:
- Lowers your company-wide risk.
- Elevates your security frameworks.
- Complies with mandates by several health insurance organizations.
- Helps avoid noncompliance at the state and federal level.
Guidelines for the Certification
Achieving HITRUST consists of five steps:
- Analyzing: Determining what will be required to earn certification.
- Preparation: Filling out policies and procedures templates.
- Facilitation: Learning how to use HITRUST tools.
- Reviewing: Looking over the quality of material pre-validation.
