Audit Trail

HIPAA requires covered entities to maintain audit trails for all systems containing PHI. In Formisoft, every view, create, update, delete, and export event is automatically logged.

HIPAA
Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, a US federal law enacted in 1996 that establishes national standards for protecting sensitive patient health information. HIPAA includes the Privacy Rule (who can access PHI), the Security Rule (technical safeguards required), and the Breach Notification Rule (what to do if data is compromised). Any healthcare provider or vendor handling patient data must comply.
PHI (Protected Health Information)
Any individually identifiable health information held or transmitted by a covered entity or its business associates, in any form (electronic, paper, or oral). PHI includes 18 specific identifiers such as names, dates, phone numbers, email addresses, Social Security numbers, and medical record numbers when connected to health data.
