BlueBridge Networks to Co-Host HIPAA HITECH Compliance Event

CLEVELAND, July 30, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Customers of Cleveland, Ohio's BlueBridge Networks have come to rely on the data center services, disaster recovery and utility cloud provider's keen ability to offer and maintain optimal data center and cloud security. One of the reasons is because BlueBridge recognizes that every industry has a unique set of requirements for data security, and that those requirements are very rarely static.

This is especially true when it comes to HIPAA regulations. For hospitals, research facilities and businesses dealing with the healthcare industry, the regulations for maintaining patient confidentiality can be cumbersome and frequently amended or updated. BlueBridge's multi-pronged solutions for HIPAA have been invaluable to many businesses related to the healthcare industry. With a self-imposed system of checks and balances, as well as third party audits, they practice what they preach.

Customers who have come to rely on BlueBridge for maximum HIPAA solutions include The American Red Cross, Cleveland HeartLab, DataTrak International, eMTS, FormFire, MTScribe, Hyland Software OnBase, PBM Corp., Premier Physicians, SS&G Health Services, Independent Physicians and Southwest General Hospital among others. Their work within healthcare may be diverse, but all must be ever-vigilant about HIPAA HITECH law and requirements.

The BlueBridge team makes a point of not only staying current with HIPAA rules and regulations for their own customers, they often share that knowledge with the community.  Wednesday, July 31^st, they will be co-hosting a special IT security event – HIPAA HITECH Compliance: What Organizations and Their Business Associates Need to Know. 

The event, co-sponsored by Jurrinov, Tucker Ellis, MetroHealth, Cuyahoga Community College and BioEnterprise, is open to their entire business community and will be held at Tri-C's Advanced Technology Training Center at 3409 Woodland Avenue, Cleveland, Ohio 44115.  The event runs from 7:30am - 10am.

The panel, made up of experts in Health Care, Technology and Law, will cover a host of topics including:

• A timely update on expansion of HIPAA to the workplace.
• HIPAA has moved from the bedside to the boardroom: what businesses need to know.
• Take away practical guidance and templates to proactively address security and
  privacy exposures.
• Education is essential, for your workforce and business partners. Learn about training opportunities for your staff and associates.
