Welcome to the Healthcare Billing and Management Association Partnership Page
Companies who regularly handle such sensitive information as patient medical records have a particular responsibility to maintain the confidentiality of the data. Failure to exercise the appropriate degree of care – whether intentional or not – can have a significant adverse financial impact on your firm. The federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) calls for stiff fines and other penalties for not complying with patient privacy regulations. Lawsuits can also be brought against your firm for breach of confidentiality.
Fox Point Programs is here to help. We are recognized industry leaders in the provision of professional liability coverage. Our team can provide an insurance policy with features tailored to respond to the unique exposures faced by transcription and medical coding firms. These features include:
Duty to Defend Provision. Legal defense will be provided for any covered allegations brought against you – even if the suit is groundless, false, or without merit.
HIPAA Violation Protection. Coverage for defense costs, civil fines, and penalties levied by government agencies arising out of non-compliance with HIPPA regulation.
Computer Virus Coverage. Protection against third party computer virus damage due negligent transmission of malicious software or network security failures. Some restrictions apply.
