HIPAA Compliance Statement |
 |
The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, known as
HIPAA, was signed into law in August of 1996. The administrative
simplification provisions of HIPAA establish the standards for the
electronic transmission of health care claims and other transactions
and the procedures to be used to protect the confidentiality and
security of medical records and other personal health information.

Ivertex is committed to assisting both providers and payers in
achieving HIPAA compliance by developing and providing electronic
data interchange (EDI) products and solutions which meet the regulatory
requirements for transactions, codes, and security. Our mission
is to enable small and medium sized providers and payers with the
most cost effective, easy to implement and direct HIPAA transaction
tool possible. We don't believe that compliance should be complex
or expensive.
Our products have been developed “from the ground up”
by our in-house, industry experienced development team specifically
for the purpose of allowing our customers to adhere to HIPAA EDI
compliance rules NOW and easily remain in compliance in the future.
Ivertex will continue to monitor regulatory requirements and the
marketplace to implement product enhancements as needed. We will
communicate the availability of all software updates to partner
with our customers in their ongoing HIPAA compliance efforts. In
other words, we are providing a long-term, cost-effective solution
rather than a “quick fix” for meeting the initial compliance
deadlines.
Although we realize that it takes more than just installing some
software to be fully HIPAA compliant, providers need vendors who
are backing their products if they are ever going to be compliant
themselves. Ivertex products are HIPAA compliant in the areas we
say they are, once configured and verified by partner testing. We
conduct extensive testing, and if you do find any deficiencies in
our products then tell us about it and we'll start fixing it the
very same day.
SolAce is compliant with HIPAA Transaction Rule and currently supports
837 Professional outbound and inbound, 837 Institutional outbound,
997 Acknowledgment, 864 Report, and 835 Remittance Advice inbound.
SolAce will recognize but not process other transactions at this
time. 837 multi-payer COB and Dental, 835 ERA outbound, and 837
Institutional inbound support is in trading partner testing now.
If you have further question regarding the HIPAA compliance of
any Ivertex products or solutions, please feel free to contact
us.
