One of the general objectives of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) is to protect the health information of individuals against access without consent or authorization. Virtual Solutions Inc. (VSI) achieves HIPAA compliance by combining secure technology with appropriate policies and procedures.

Virtual Solutions Inc. (VSI) agrees that patient and client confidentiality are of utmost importance. VSI employees and subcontractors conform to HIPAA regulations by adhering to the following practices:

1. VSI’s vCapture products breaks forms into secure ‘snippets’ so that documents are never transmitted in context.
2. Snippets are sent in scrambled batches with a random 64 bit identifier over a secure SSL to our remote subcontractor workforce.
3. Sensitive fields like SSN can be securely split into two snippets for added protection.
4. No single subcontractor can see multiple parts of a securely split field or key all fields from a single form.
5. All communication is encrypted and password protected.
