Compliance Features to Meet Data
Privacy Standards

EmailMeForm provides a user-friendly and secure platform for gathering and managing sensitive information, while also ensuring that you are in compliance with federal regulations.

Transmission Security

Patient data is safeguarded when transmitted electronically. Any sensitive information submitted through your form is transmitted as encrypted data using the industry standard SHA 256 SSL connection.

Integrity

The technical safeguard standard mandates that patient data or PII should not be deleted or altered in an unauthorized manner. All data gathered through your forms is protected from unauthorized access by our secure cloud storage.

Person or Entity Authentication

Our security standards require proof of identity to access accounts that collect sensitive user information. EmailMeForm has MFA (multi-factor authentication), meaning it can only be accessed with a strong password and a unique code generated from authentication applications.

BAA (Business Associate Agreement)

EmailMeForm provides a BAA for your business to securely collect and store PII and PHI.

Field Encryption

Our forms provide an added layer of security for your practice. EmailMeForm uses encrypted fields to protect PHI, ensuring security and confidentiality from the moment users enter their data.

Audit Controls

Track all activities that occur to mitigate the risk that may happen. The "Audit Trail" on every form displays detailed logs of modifications made to your forms and the actions taken with your data.

Access Control

Add team members to your account and distribute permissions according to their specific roles.

Collecting PII or PHI

PII (personally identifiable information) and PHI (protected health information) are often used interchangeably. However, knowing the difference is crucial for any business meaning to achieve HIPAA compliance. PII includes general information that can be used to identify or locate an individual, while PHI refers to health-related information (medical records) . PHI is a subtype of PII acquired through the provision of healthcare services. EmailMeForm helps you meet the global compliance standards necessary to collect both PII and PHI.

Frequently Asked Questions:

The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) regulated by the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services is a federal law that protects the privacy and security of individually identifiable health information, also known as protected health information (PHI).

HIPAA key rules are the following:

  • HIPAA Privacy Rule - Standards that set the limit on the access of private patient records (personal information).

  • HIPAA Security Rule - Establishes national standards for the security of electronic PHI (ePHI) and requires covered entities to implement administrative, physical, and technical safeguards to protect ePHI.

  • Breach Notification Rule - Requires covered entities and their business associates to notify individuals and the Health and Human Services (HHS) in the event of a breach of unsecured PHI.

  • Enforcement Rule - Outlines procedures for investigating and enforcing the HIPAA Privacy, Security, and Breach Notification Rules. It gives the HHS Office for Civil Rights the authority to investigate complaints of HIPAA violations, impose penalties, and refer cases for criminal prosecution.

HIPAA compliance refers to the process of ensuring that covered entities and business associates are following the requirements of the HIPAA Privacy, Security, and Breach Notification Rules, including implementing policies and procedures to safeguard personal health information.

Entities in contact with PHI – health plans, healthcare clearinghouses, health insurance companies, health care providers who conduct any financial and administrative transactions electronically, and endorsed sponsors of the Medicare prescription drug discount card – are legislated by HIPAA. Additionally, Business Associates (BA) are also covered by the act.

HIPAA violation would damage your business’s reputation. Failure to meet these requirements regarding handling PHI and PII can incur fines to businesses up to $50,000 per offense up to a maximum of $1.5 million per year.

EmailMeForm complies with HIPAA. However, there is currently no HIPAA certification recognized by the US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS).
