HIPAA Compliance

The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, HIPAA, has serious implications for behavioral healthcare and social service providers. Two basic components of the Act are the protection of the confidentiality of client data and the standardization of electronically transmitted client data. Organizations must comply, and document their compliance, or face hefty penalties.

MS*Health Software wishes to assure its clients and prospective clients that MS*Health/CMHC for Windows software installations covered by then current support agreements will comply with each of the HIPAA regulations standards by their respective mandated implementation dates.

Users of earlier versions of MS*Health/CMHC should consider upgrading to MS*Health/CMHC for Windows to assure compliance with HIPAA requirements.
