Using email encryption to improve your healthcare practice

October 23, 2020
Email encryption

Cyber threats continue to increase with no end in sight. Organizations are forced to operate under new conditions, with even more stringent rules and policies and with new unfamiliar tools to try and keep their businesses afloat. 

As expected, malicious hackers are ready to pounce.

The ability to follow strict HHS guidelines as it pertains to HIPAA/HITECH are even more critical given today’s environment.

With the right email encryption platform, you have an opportunity to make immediate positive changes to your work environment, your security, and to your adherence of compliance guidelines. With the ability to send secure emails directly from your EHR system, you also improve the patient experience while saving costs and improving productivity within your company.

Are you looking to improve your business security and workflow? Here’s how.

Flexible work environments require strong technology and communication tools

Working remotely has become part of the new normal in a post COVID-19 world. This means an even higher dependency on technology and communication tools. With a powerful email encryption platform, you can communicate securely with anyone with the added benefits of sending GB file size attachments, real-time tracking and audit trail, message expiry and message recall.

Improve security with email encryption

One of the main reasons to move towards email encryption is to improve your security, and allow your users to communicate more effectively, while saving time and costs. The right email encryption suite should provide multiple layers of encryption and security for every email you send. Further, having the ability to present expiration dates for your secure emails and being able to recall them with no limitations are key elements to email encryption tools.

Improve compliance with email encryption

The ability to adapt to a new work environment will always have an impact on Compliance. Whether it’s HIPAA/HITECH, PCI, CCPA, or any other federal or state privacy regulations, you can be rest assured that the right solution will adhere to strict standards and processes.

Save time, resources and costs with the right email encryption partner

With rich features and functionality, your healthcare practice may immediately see the benefits by saving valuable time, costs and resources. Reduce costs with file-sharing sites, FTP’s, cumbersome faxing solutions, mailing and courier services.

Real-time tracking and audit trail availability allows your users to monitor in real-time whether your secure emails have been read, attempted to be read, replied or forwarded, printed, or even have the attachments previewed or downloaded. Empower your users by giving them more communication intel before they make that next phone call for a status update.

Our leading EHR solution, CGM APRIMA offers a uniquely fast, flexible, and powerful EHR designed to complement and simplify your workflow, not hinder it.

Premium practice support improves patient experience

Using services that are otherwise cumbersome or confusing is a direct reflection of your business to your customers. Eliminate frustrating experiences backed by premium customer support for your staff and your recipients.

An ideal registration system, if required, should be no more than a 30 second process that asks just a few questions and allows cross collaboration for other organizations using the platform. Alternative verification methods should include phone, text and shared secret.

Improve productivity for your medical practice

In modern times, healthcare organizations are struggling to find ways to become more productive while saving costs. Having the ability to securely communicate with other healthcare clinics, labs, offices, insurance companies, and even patients is a significant benefit in streamlining workflow and operations.

The ability to track messages and PHI content sent to both internal and external users is a critical success factor in improving productivity.
