Build a Third-Party Risk Program That Prevents Disruption

Third-party issues are preventable with the right setup. A third party risk management program replaces scattered emails and spreadsheets with a centralized place for data, documents, and actions. With defined steps and a central point of control for review, approval, and distribution, work moves on time and creates audit-ready evidence. Key dates tie to alerts. This way, nothing critical gets missed. The Third Party Risk ...

What is a Whistleblower?

“If you see something, say something,” goes the common adage. Enter whistleblowers, who both “see” and “say”. A simple way to answer what is a whistleblower is: an employee-type insider who raises a red flag about serious problems, like a law or regulatory violation, gross mismanagement, a big waste of funds, abuse of authority, or a risk to public health or safety. If you’re still ...

What Are the Benefits of HIPAA Software?

To keep patient data out of the wrong hands, HIPAA software helps you reduce small mistakes that can lead to major breaches.

Keeping Up with Regulatory Requirements in Healthcare

Regulatory requirements in healthcare are constantly changing. Why? Rules that govern healthcare sit at the intersection of public health, technology, economics, and policy—all of which evolve rapidly. A public health crisis or patient safety issues can trigger new standards, as can advancements in medicine and technology. Patient advocacy groups and professional associations also lobby for regulatory change to address gaps or improve service. Healthcare organizations ...
