Our company is expanding! In order to accommodate our growth, we have moved into a larger office this past weekend. All our phone numbers remain the same. We are excited to start the new year in our new space! Please make note of our new address: 228 East 45th St 4th floor South New York, NY 10017 ___________________________________ Can you easily find your important business documents? Like most people looking for documents, you would have to rummage through countless folders, wasting precious time and manpower. According to the Wall Street Journal, the average executive spends more than 6 weeks a year searching for misplaced business documents! By implementing a document capture solution such as OpenText Alchemy, you can save hundreds of hours that would otherwise be spent searching documents. Alchemy is a document imaging and document managing system, allowing you to store documents digitally. You then search through your repository, retrieving any business critical files. Alchemy captures and imports documents from sources like MFPs, desktop applications,fax machines and even your RightFax server (which on its own does not have document capture capabilities). For further information about Alchemy, please, click here ____________________________________ Not Running VoIP? You can still Virtualize your Faxing! Some organizations do not have a VoIP set-up, but still require some sort of fax solution. You can leverage all the benefits and costs advantages of FoIP (fax over IP), without a VoIP infrastructure, by using a fax gateway such as our Dialogic Media Gateways (DMG). A fax gateway allows for scalability and flexibility by giving you the control whether or not you want to integrate into your current or future network infrastructure. This may be relevant if you are planning on upgrading your existing fax server or purchasing a new fax server and/or planning a VoIP implementation in the future. You still can get the benefits of using your legacy RightFax software by leveraging it with the DMG.

HIPAA & Regulatory Compliance

OpenText RightFax enterprise fax and e-document delivery solutions support compliance with privacy and security rules by digitizing paper-based protected health information for private, secure, and auditable electronic distribution.

U.S. HIPAA regulations require health care organizations to be more efficient and to run their organizations more securely to enhance patient service and ensure the privacy and security of private personal health information.  Similar legislation specific to patient data exists in other countries such as Ontario, Canada's Personal Health Information Protection Act (PHIPA) of 2004, Section 60 of the UK's Health and Social Care Act of 2001, France's Medical Privacy Act, Article L1110-4 of 2002, or Spain's Basic Law 41/200 of 2002.  More general data privacy legislation in many countries also applies to patient information such as the European Union's Directive on Data Protection (95/46/EC) which is embodied in member countries' national legislation.
Access to private health information must be limited and its confidentiality must be diligently protected. Secure systems and processes must be in place to provide information in a timely, efficient, and cost-effective way to the people that need to use it to drive patient healthcare decisions. In addition, healthcare organizations need to provide a reliable audit trail for tracking and reporting communications.  OpenText RightFax is an essential part of many healthcare providers regulatory compliance regime, providing tamper resistant document delivery and receipt, encrypted and certified delivery options and full audit trails.

Top 5 Ways RightFax supports HIPAA & Regulatory compliance:

1. Restricts Access to Protected Health Information
2. Provides a Centralized Communications Hub For Protected Health Information
3. Secure and Encrypted Electronic Delivery of Protected Health Information
4. Tamper-resistant Information Transmission and Receipt
5. Improved Health Information Tracking and Storage

An OpenText white paper provides a brief overview of HIPAA regulations and how healthcare organizations are using technology to assist with compliance. It discusses network faxing, explores some of the advantages of implementing a network fax solutions to support HIPAA compliance initiatives, and introduces OpenText RightFax as a flexible tool for improving the security and overall efficiency of document transmission processes.
