Is Office 365 HIPAA Compliant?

Yes. Microsoft^® Office 365 provides all the capabilities you need to satisfy the technology requirements for HIPAA and HITECH compliance.  These regulations require that organizations establish and document procedures that govern:

·        Restrict access to patient data.

·        How patient data is handled.

·        How stored patient data is kept secure.

·        How to secure patient data when it’s transmitted.

Meeting these general guidelines requires lots of time and attention to detail. Office 365 helps you meet these requirements with less time and cost than you might think
