Using My Docs Online in a HIPAA-compliant fashion depends on following proper usage guidelines, which can vary based on a particular use, but have several general characteristics.

For instance, medical transcriptionists and similar services ("Business Associates"), as well as physicians and other providers ("Covered Entities") should:

  • Use the Transcription or Enterprise Edition.
  • Assign individual subaccount IDs to each "covered entity" and to each MT.
  • Avoid the shared use of individual subaccount IDs.
  • Enforce transmission encryption by requiring the use of SSL for all subaccounts.
  • Set appropriate folder permissions based on the access privileges of each subaccount.
  • Safeguard login IDs and passwords.
  • Avoid the inclusion of individually identifiable information in the names of uploaded files or comments associated with files.
