Healthcare Managed Services IT Firm

An IT firm that serves the mid-size and enterprise market needed compliance help around HIPAA laws |
|
The Challenge
HIPAA compliance for sensitive client medical information
|
The IT firm had a lot of clients with a large customer base in the healthcare/medical industry. They had accumulated a large amount of sensitive information from their clients that had become an afterthought when servicing the customer. The firm’s internal legal team is lean, and they didn’t have time to tackle this issue. They contacted BluWave asking us to connect them to a compliance firm that could help them do an internal audit on customer data. |

The Result
Connected with an IT firm for an audit
|
The firm selected one of the service providers we shared, kicking off their audit to ensure HIPAA compliance. They accelerated the company’s process, freeing up internal resources to focus on other pressing matters while ensuring that they weren’t legally exposed to any privacy issues. When the engagement was completed, the client asked us for opportunities to continue working with the third-party firm. |
