HIPAA and AccessMaster: a Software Tool for Healthcare Security

Overview This white paper discusses HIPAA as it relates to security and policy management for security. It summarizes parts of the act and explains how Evidian's SSO and security products can help a health care provider or government agency assure compliance.
The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act went into effect in February 2000. It is a set of regulations to make sure that people have health care insurance after they leave a job. It also sets the standards and requirements for healthcare transactions under the Administrative Simplification provisions. These standards and requirements include a comprehensive, mandated framework for security and privacy.
