What is a HIPAA Compliant Call Center?

A HIPAA Compliant Call Center is a call answering service provider that specializes in customer support for patients. Healthcare related businesses that might handle private patient information through phone, chat, or other platforms must only work with call centers or BPOs that are certified according to HIPAA standards by an accredited inspector and auditor. These standards are strict to protect the privacy of patients.

What is PHI?

PHI stands for Protected Health Information.

“The HIPAA Privacy Rule provides federal protections for personal health information held by covered entities and gives patients an array of rights with respect to that information. At the same time, the Privacy Rule is balanced so that it permits the disclosure of personal health information needed for patient care and other important purposes.”
