For HIPPA compliance, our OSHA/HIPPA audit has notified us we should have software that will lock someone out after multiple wrong attempts.
For HIPPA compliance, our OSHA/HIPPA auditor has notified us we should have software that will lock someone out after multiple wrong attempts. Here are some links from OIG Health & Human Resource which mention that it is an easy step that should be taken into consideration when and if there is a breach of patient information that we (the Dr & office staff) as well as our practice associates--(you the EHR company) have done everything to limit the access to our protected patient information. Also agree with prior posts that recommend password changes to comply with HIPPA.
