Transcription Services is committed to protecting your protected health information (PHI). We comply with all Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) requirements as well as the new, more stringent requirements imposed under the HITECH Act.

Transcription Services’ dictation and transcription platform is fully compliant with all of the HIPAA and HITECH standards for access control and data transmission. All users are required to have a unique ID and password which controls user access rights to patient information and allows complete tracking of report access and modification. Transmission of voice and data is done using Secure Socket Layer over Hyper Text Transfer Protocol (HTTPS) security and is encrypted with 256 bit 3DES encryption technology. Whenever File Transfer Protocol is used, we encourage our users to use Secure File Transfers (SFTP).

HIPAA establishes rules for protecting individual identifiable health information, the rights granted to individuals, the Office of Civil Rights' (OCR) enforcement activities, and how to file a complaint with the OCR. It is your responsibility to learn and understand the rules for the protection of your PHI and your rights as protected by the federal law. You can learn about these and other issues at the US Department of Health and Human Services website at:
