Employers May Need to Monitor Compliance of Business Associates with HITECH Act
Cooley LLP [Guidance Overview] Feb. 18, 2010
Excerpt: An employer with a health plan that uses the services of one or more business associates should confirm that each business associate providing services to the health plan is aware of its enhanced HIPAA obligations .... Such confirmation may already have been obtained by the plan's insurer or third party administrator, but if it has not, communication with the business associate is advised. An employer might also consider seeking an acknowledgement that the business associate is in full compliance with its enhanced obligations under HIPAA.
