Community General Hospital and Pervasive Solutions Protect Patient Health Information
SYRACUSE, NY (PRWeb) December 12, 2006 -- Syracuse's Community General Hospital has teamed with Rochester-based Pervasive Solutions, LLC (www.pervasivesolutions.net) to implement their Secure Email service. All outgoing emails will now pass through Pervasive Solutions' servers which will automatically encrypt any emails containing Protected Health Information (PHI).
This solution utilizes technology endorsed by the American Hospital Association (AHA) and helps Community General comply with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA). By passing each email through a lexicon of medical terms, the system can quickly and automatically identify those emails that contain information of a private nature. All such emails are immediately encrypted before they leave the security of the Hospital network. This system will make it possible for Community General to increase their use of email for communicating with clients, payers and other health care professionals.
"We are thrilled that our Secure Email service can facilitate improved speed and safety of communication between Community General's patients and staff," says Steve vonBerg, President of Pervasive Solutions. "And we are very pleased to be working with the talented information technology group at Community General. The implementation of this system was nearly effortless."
The ease of implementation was indeed a deciding factor for Community General. According to Community General's Chief Information Officer, Mitch Rozonkiewiecz, "Pervasive's Secure Email service is unobtrusive and efficient. Because the encryption happens automatically, it requires very little effort from our users and will significantly improve our overall information security strategy."
The Secure Email service is a managed solution provided by Pervasive Solutions to clients nationally. The service ensures that private emails are encrypted and only accessible by the designated recipient.
