At Medical Republic, we are very conscientious about privacy and security. Our philosophy
on privacy is simple: We do not divulge any information, for any reason, about anybody,
ever. As a Medical Republic customer or the patient of a health care professional
using our software solutions, your information will not be sold, shared, or distributed
in any way.
HIPAA Security Information
We take our security measures very seriously and commit to doing everything possible
to ensure that your data and electronic communication with Medical Republic is secure
and HIPAA compliant. When you use Medical Republic you can rest assured that
your network communications to our servers are secure and that your data is safe.
Below are just some of the security measures we have in place:
- We use a high level of encryption when communicating to our servers. This
level of encryption is higher than the standard 128 bit encryption used by financial
institutions and commercial websites for the ultimate in security.
- Any offline information stored locally on your machine (such as offline backups
and settings) are encrypted.
- The Medical Republic Servers can only
be accessed via the Medical Republic Software.
- We have strict security policies and access control measures within Medical Republic
that prevent access to sensitive information, even by our own employees.
- We have policies in place to ensure as little down-time as possible is experienced
in the case of a disaster.
- Our software is designed to ensure HIPAA compliance.
- We randomly audit our employees and our systems to ensure compliance with our security
policies.
As a member of Medical Republic, you should know that:
-
No employee or representative of Medical Republic will ever ask you for your account
credentials. When verifying your identity, you will be asked to provide proof that
we can verify. We never read you your personal information and ask you to verify
that it is correct.
- If you feel one of our employees has acted in a manner that you feel is inconsistent
with our privacy or security policies, you may submit a complaint or suggestion
anonymously. We will investigate your claim and act appropriately.
- If you suspect a breach of security, you should contact us immediately so we can
investigate and take appropriate action.
If you have any questions regarding our privacy and security policies, feel free
to contact us
and tell us your concern. We will respond to you promptly.
