CEDAR RAPIDS, IA — Jul 1, 2014 — ETM, developer of UPExchange for unclaimed property reporting — and WingsPlus for statutory financial reporting and tax compliance — is now compliant with the mandates of the federal HIPAA privacy and security rules. HIPAA-covered entities can now contract with ETM, knowing its disclosure, handling, and use of EPHI (electronic protected health information) complies with the HIPAA Security Rule and HIPAA Privacy Rule.
“Information related to unclaimed property may be enough to constitute EPHI,” said Layton Olson, ETM’s CEO. “Our compliance with HIPAA makes it easier for companies in the healthcare industry to realize the benefits of UPExchange and take advantage of the cost-savings and convenience of software as a service. This is a major development in unclaimed property compliance.”
