HIPAA

HIPAA is the acronym for the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) is responsible for implementing various unrelated provisions of HIPAA.

Northampton Regional EMS is committed to upholding the highest standards of compliance to the regulatory demands of HIPAA.  We have spent a considerable amount of time, money, and planning in order to fully comply with HIPAA.

We will update this page with those policies and forms as required.
