HIPAA Compliance:
The Internet poses unique opportunities and challenges to the
healthcare industry. It enables the industry to lower transaction
and operational costs while providing better service to customers,
partners, and physicians. Leveraging an open network such as the
Internet also raises concerns about the privacy of individually
identifiable patient information.
To address these security concerns, the United States Congress passed
HIPAA (The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996),
a set of standards that simplify electronic transactions and define
minimum requirements for network security.
As healthcare organizations strive to leverage the Internet, they
need to
deploy security architecture to meet government regulations
and ensure
the trust of patients.

FDCPA Compliance:
The Federal Fair Debt Collections Practices Act (FDCPA) was enacted
in 1977
to protect consumers from unfair and abusive collection
practices. The law regulates professional, third-party collection
agencies and attorneys, but
not “in-house” collectors, or employees
of creditors who collect their own
debts. The FDCPA is enforced on
the federal level by the Federal Trade Commission. There may be
regulations in the state where you reside that provide further
consumer protection. State laws vary.
