Our platform lets you create business continuity management solutions for your healthcare facility in line with HIPAA guidelines. The consequences can be severe if and when a business disruption exposes even a minor operational vulnerability. Stay In Business is ideally suited for developing HIPAA compliant Emergency Action Plans (EAP) and Business Continuity Plans (BCP) plans that focus on crucial activities such as attending to patients in critical conditions, protecting confidential data, ensuring the safety of staff members and so on.
HIPAA norms mandate the inclusion of EAP and BCP programs in your healthcare facility’s business continuity solution in accordance with federal, state and local laws. You can take advantage of the SIB platform to develop exhaustive plans for all possible business disruptions that might occur due to natural hazards as well as human intervention. The application lets you monitor in real time all staff members and medical practitioners who are on premises by installing the SIB application on mobile devices.

Our trained experts with years of industry specific experience can provide your company’s personnel with the necessary training to meet HIPAA requirements.

HIPAA Requirements
HIPAA Contingency Planning emphasizes the protection and easy access of your healthcare facility’s PHI. The details can be found in the Security Rule under the Administrative Safeguards section. Mandatory items include:
- Developing and implementing a data backup plan
- Developing a disaster recovery plan
- Developing an emergency mode operation plan
- Developing and implementing procedures for testing and revision of contingency plans
- Performing an application and data critical analysis
Contingency Planning Objectives
- Ensure continuity of mission critical processes and reduce loss
- Establish time-bound goals and targets for the first hour, day or week following a disaster
- Define thresholds that would trigger contingency plans into activation
- Identify personnel authorized to deploy plans
- Ensure that contingency plans are employee-agnostic
- Distribute plans across the organization
- Delegate roles & responsibilities to staff
- Schedule tests to detect gaps in the plan
- Keep the plan effective through regular updates
- Raise awareness among staff members
- Evaluate the plan periodically, especially after technical, procedural or ecosystem related changes
Your healthcare facility is aligned with the HIPAA business continuity standard only when you can access mission critical information during incidents of data loss or when the location suffers damages. In order to meet this requirement, Stay In Business allows you to develop plans for backing up crucial data in an offsite location and recovering from a disaster.
With SIB’s BCDR platform, you can also schedule periodical risk assessments and training programs for your healthcare facility’s staff. This is a crucial HIPAA requirement for ensuring that there are no gaps between your location’s resiliency objectives and your employees’ ability to execute business continuity plans. Stay In Business allows your staff members to stay prepared all the time and respond immediately when a crisis occurs.
