Understand the HIPAA Privacy Rule and the Use of Tracking Technologies
If you are a healthcare organization that has vendors providing services that utilize tracking technologies, you must understand the requirements found within the HIPAA Privacy Rule. Tracking technologies are used to collect and analyse information about how users interact with covered entities websites or mobile applications.
Tracking technologies collect information and track users in various ways, many of which are not apparent to the website or mobile app user. Websites commonly use tracking technologies such as cookies, web beacons or tracking pixels, session replay scripts, and fingerprinting scripts to track and collect information from users.
Covered entities are required to comply with the HIPAA Rules when using tracking technologies. This includes complying with the HIPAA Privacy, Security, and Breach Notification requirements when using tracking technologies that access to protected health information.
Having a systematic process to handle the use of this type of technology to ensure a healthcare organization’s protected health information is being properly accessed and secured by third parties is critical.
