HIPAA Compliance: Protecting Your Patients’ Data with CareTrack

At EVV CareTrack, the privacy and security of your data are our highest priorities. Our app and backend systems are designed to comply fully with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), ensuring that Protected Health Information (PHI) is handled securely and responsibly. Whether you’re a caregiver, healthcare provider, or administrator, you can trust us to safeguard sensitive patient information.

What is HIPAA?

The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) is a U.S. law that establishes national standards to protect sensitive health information from unauthorized access or disclosure. At EVV CareTrack, we align with these regulations to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of PHI within our app and backend systems.

How CareTrack Ensures HIPAA Compliance

We implement strict administrative, physical, and technical safeguards to protect PHI, as outlined below:

1. Data Encryption

• PHI is encrypted at all times, both in transit and at rest, using industry-standard protocols such as AES-256 for storage and TLS 1.2/1.3 for data transmission.

2. Secure Hosting

• CareTrack is hosted on Amazon Web Services (AWS), which is HIPAA-eligible and provides world-class data security.
• AWS ensures physical and digital safeguards, including intrusion detection, secure data centers, and multi-layered access controls.

3. Role-Based Access Control

• Access to PHI is strictly controlled using role-based permissions, ensuring that only authorized personnel can access sensitive information.
• Multi-factor authentication (MFA) is required for backend access.

4. Audit Trails and Monitoring

• Comprehensive logging and monitoring of all activities involving PHI ensure transparency and accountability.
• Audit trails are regularly reviewed to detect and address any suspicious activity.

5. Incident Response Plan

• A robust incident response plan is in place to identify, contain, and resolve any potential breaches of data security.
• We adhere to HIPAA breach notification requirements to notify affected parties and authorities promptly.
