ZenQMS Announces Official HIPAA Compliance Across Full Suite of Quality Management Client Solutions
ARDMORE, Pa., April 27, 2021 (Newswire.com) - ZenQMS, a leader in quality management software (QMS) within the highly regulated life sciences and healthcare industries, today announces that the company's software platform is officially compliant with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA).
HIPAA compliance requires that companies follow strict guidelines to safeguard patients' Protected Health Information (PHI), not only within the company, but whenever that information is being shared with outside providers who receive, transmit, or maintain PHI on their behalf.
"At ZenQMS, we have always focused on the core regulatory standards that drive our GxP Life Sciences clients, and I believe that formally adopting HIPAA compliance helps our clients to feel 100% confident in trusting our state-of-the-art eQMS platform with their data," explains Panos Boudouvas, ZenQMS' Co-Founder and CEO. "Like our recent ISO 9001 certification, this effort demonstrates our commitment to put ourselves in our clients' shoes and maintain a high degree of trust around the overall safety and security of their data within our quality solutions.
To achieve this HIPAA compliance status, ZenQMS embarked on a thorough risk assessment and due diligence effort.
"We are thrilled to bring our clients this official HIPAA compliance status," said Karin Ashkenazi, ZenQMS' Director of Quality Assurance. "While we have always taken great pride in our compliance measures, this extra step will perhaps open up even more opportunities for existing and prospective clients to harness the power of our QMS."
