"Over six months ago,
we began searching for a solution for our health care
clients which would be logical, simple and workable. Most
of the programs we reviewed, however, were designed for
hospitals and large organizations. They were complex and
expensive. The first program we reviewed would have cost
$5,000 per year!
Other companies are
offering 'cookie-cutter' manuals, which I felt would be
difficult to implement and are likely to be placed on the
shelf and forgotten. Last week, I reviewed a computerized
HIPAA Compliance Program developed by Howard Ross.
The program is designed
specifically for the small doctor's office, is thorough,
but yet as simple as anyone has been able to achieve. The
program can be implemented by a key staff person, and
generates manuals and forms customized to your individual
office. So far, this is the best solution we have seen."
"As a health care law
attorney, I have reviewed six HIPAA compliance products to
assist my clients with this difficult law. After reviewing
the H. J. Ross Company INTERACTIVE HIPAA PROGRAM, I need
not look any further. I will be recommending to all of my
clients (and any one else that asks) that this is THE
product that will bring the small practice into complete
compliance. - Roger Calton, Attorney at Law
The "interactive"
approach of this program is one of the most innovative
concepts I have ever seen! Having written numerous
compliance manuals for large facilities re: Starke II and
other federal compliance programs, I can honestly say that
the manuals produced by this program are beyond anyone's
expectations!
From a legal
standpoint, I was especially impressed with two things:
1) The INTERACTIVE
HIPAA PROGRAM contains a complete 'compliance checklist'
which shows where every required element of this
law is located in the compliance manuals which are
produced.
2) Mr. Ross approached
this implementation process NOT in the order that the law
was written, but rather in the order of how the
procedures would work in a doctor's office. This
approach, including the second manual (Administrative
Compliance) is truly usable by any small practitioner."
"I have to admit that I
was really concerned about how difficult HIPAA was going
to be to implement into our office. Having attended two
seminars and reading everything I could on the Internet, I
just knew this was going to take forever and would be
impossible! I am so grateful that my doctor purchased the
H. J. Ross Company INTERACTIVE HIPAA PROGRAM!! -
Michael Schroeder, Attorney at Law
After the installing
the software and working with the program for 15 minutes,
I knew that I could do this all by myself! I have now
completed my HIPAA Compliance Policy and Procedure and my
Administrative Compliance Manual and I did it all in less
than six hours!! And, I know more about HIPAA now than I
ever did before!
The interaction with
the program was the easiest thing in the world for me to
get our practice ready for the April 14 deadline. I would
recommend this program to any small practitioner's office
as the easiest and best way to get this otherwise
difficult job done!" - Karen Hoffman
