Communifire complies with HIPAA standards, securing communication and collaboration with all key stakeholders.
Medical records and protected health information (PHI) need to be protected with utmost privacy. Communifire is HIPAA-ready and we sign a Business Associates Agreement (BAA) with our customers. Under the U.S. Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, a HIPAA business associate agreement (BAA) is a contract between a HIPAA-covered entity and a HIPAA business associate (BA). The contract protects personal health information (PHI) in accordance with HIPAA guidelines. Please note that Axero employees do not have access to any PHI data, nor does Axero require any PHI data for the functioning of its software. Axero provides a platform for intranet, and it is the discretion of the customer to store the data on their intranet. Axero makes sure that this data is protected as per the HIPAA guidelines.How your patients' information is protected
At Axero, building trusted long-term partnerships with our customers is our top priority. To earn the trust of our customers in healthcare and life sciences, and to protect the privacy of ePHI, Axero addresses the safeguards and requirements outlined by the HIPAA Security Rule.
