Protecting Protected Health Information (PHI) is fundamental to our services. We are committed to maintaining the highest standards of HIPAA compliance, security, and confidentiality for every healthcare organization we serve.
At SwyftRevenue, maintaining compliance with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA), the HITECH Act, and the Omnibus Rule is central to everything we do. As a trusted Business Associate to healthcare providers, covered entities, and medical practices nationwide, we are committed to safeguarding Protected Health Information (PHI) and electronic Protected Health Information (ePHI).
Under HIPAA regulations, SwyftRevenue functions as a Business Associate (BA) when performing revenue cycle management, medical billing, coding, and claims processing services for Covered Entities (physicians, clinics, hospitals, and healthcare organizations).
We execute formal Business Associate Agreements (BAAs) with all covered entity clients prior to receiving or processing any patient data, establishing clear legal boundaries for data use, handling, and security.
We implement rigorous physical, administrative, and technical safeguards designed to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of PHI.
SwyftRevenue utilizes PHI solely to fulfill obligations defined in our agreements with Covered Entities, including:
We never sell PHI, nor do we disclose PHI to unauthorized third parties without explicit authorization or valid legal mandate.
In the unlikely event of a security incident or unauthorized acquisition, access, use, or disclosure of unencrypted PHI, SwyftRevenue maintains a strict Breach Notification Protocol.
SwyftRevenue requires all subcontractors, software partners, clearinghouses, and vendors who interact with PHI to sign binding Business Associate Agreements and maintain security standards equal to or exceeding our own.
If you have questions regarding our HIPAA compliance protocols, wish to report a security concern, or require an executed Business Associate Agreement (BAA), please contact our Compliance Officer.
