Voltage Security Healthcare Solutions for Providers

Securing Electronic Communications for the Healthcare Industry

Healthcare Providers are strapped with an enormous amount of paperwork. Today the industry spends over $200 (up to $400) billion in yearly administration costs. Providers are searching for assistance in "administrative simplification" in hopes of speeding up and streamlining business processes, reducing errors, and lowering costs while meeting HIPAA compliancy.

In search of tangible improvements in operations and the need to meet government regulations, healthcare providers are considering secure email for trusted, fast communication of Protected Health Information (PHI). Many are turning to Voltage for a secure email communication channel that's easy to use and manage, meets HIPAA regulations, and ultimately streamlines business processes.

By utilizing Voltage's Secure Messaging platform healthcare providers are optimizing communications between patients, providers, and administrative functions for:

• Immediate communication of test/lab results
• The ability to set-up/confirm appointments electronically
• Direct distribution of educational materials
• Timely handling of materials
• Internal secure email exchange (e.g. Billing Clerk sending an email to the Medical Records Director for coding information on a certain patient account)
• Rapid submission of Rx renewals
• Simplified process to verify eligibility and submit claims

Voltage is working with a number of leading healthcare providers to quickly deliver industry leading secure communications, without interrupting the organization's infrastructure and while maintaining ease of use. For one Voltage customer, the need to communicate sensitive information (clinical results, referrals, and claims inquiries) quickly both within and outside their organization has become vital. The convenience of communicating via email and with their PDAs (e.g., BlackBerry) was a very attractive proposition. Voltage Security has addressed their need better than any other secure messaging provider.
