Follow on Google News | R&R Insurance Solves HIPAA Email Encryption Dilemma with RPostRPost’s Registered Email and Email Encryption Services Simplify Secure Messaging for Both Sender and Receiver
By: RPost “Shortly after the industry focus on HIPAA’s expanded data privacy rules, most of R&R’s health insurance carriers decided that the best way to protect confidential client information was to never let it leave their system,” reports R&R Insurance Services IT Director Carl Rynders. “The easy answer for those companies was to start ‘sharing’ their email system with R&R and other agents and brokers. What that really meant was R&R employees had to create user IDs and passwords for each of those company’s systems. When those companies sent an email to one of our employees, what really happened was their system sent an email to our employee stating they had to log into their system to read the email. This was time consuming and cumbersome method was good for the health insurance companies, but bad for us! Especially when you consider the number of carriers R&R Insurance represents and the number of different IDs our agents and brokers had to keep track of.” “On top of the obvious logistical issues,” adds Rynders, “the insurance companies made it almost impossible for us to get a copy of anything for our own files. After a little research we discovered a recommendation for the RPost solution via our membership in the Assurex Global group and we’ve been very happy since implementing RPost several years ago."
