I found this blog post on a common occurance of transferring records from one place to another — and the package mysteriously ends up in the wrong hands! I think we will see a growing urgency for strong file management and security practices. Interestingly, the blog post mentions Secure FTP as a good way to protect the data transfer electronically. Our parent company Ipswitch File Transfer also has some good resources on HIPAA compliance for the healthcare industry. HIPAA resources can be found here: http://www.wsftp.com/solutions/healthcare.asp
