Emergency & Disaster Planning Guide: HIPAA Security & Business Continuity for Radiologists

Developed by Pat Kroken and Phillip Carmody, MD, the Emergency & Disaster Planning Guide provides a radiology-specific approach to the task of developing a formal Disaster and Business Continuity Plan as required by the HIPAA Security Standards.

Based on guidelines developed by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), the Emergency & Disaster Planning Guide then applies real-life operational settings for imaging centers, billing/collections and overall radiology practices.

The extensive collection of worksheets and forms provide valuable documentation for your planning efforts - so your Disaster and Continuity Plan is customized to match your practice characteristics. 

HIPAA requires the plan as part of the Security Rule which is designed to protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of electronic protected health information (EPHI).

Healthcare Resource Providers' Emergency & Disaster Planning Guide addresses key topics of EPHI and expands the process to include other aspects of your practice to aid in developing a comprehensive business continuity plan.

Presented in a clear and concise format, HRP's Guide provides radiology practice professionals the roadmap and tools to prepare their own customized Contingency Plan to meet the requirements of HIPAA as well as establishing preparedness plans for business recovery in the 21st century.
