Thanks Bert,
I was going to use the new records ID number, which would be consecutive, rather than trying to generate a random number, for in office transfers. And have the patient enter a keyword if online, and give it to the office when they come in.
Calling HIPAA is a great idea, I'll let you know if I get an audit
Appreciate 3n4 also
I guess I want to have a defense to be able to prove that the data is protected to an adequate standard, without having any experience c Internet HIPAA.
Also the data can be deleted as soon as I've copied the string to AC so there is a very brief exposure.
Let me know if you get any ideas or new recs as this will be a slow work in progress.
I wish updox would give us a sandbox to allow 3rd party programmers to make an app for our practice for interacting with patients with logic based on their symptoms and diagnoses. Eventually, all ehrs will need that capability. Go online, interact c Watson, then go to the office to check everything and start the treatment plan.
