RosettaHealth Achieves DirectTrust Privacy & Security Accreditation
DirectTrust Privacy & Security accreditation ensures adherence to data processing standards and compliance with security infrastructure, integrity and trusted identity requirements
Washington, D.C. (March 15, 2023) – RosettaHealth, an innovative and secure, big health data interoperability platform, announced today it has achieved full accreditation with the DirectTrust Privacy & Security program from DirectTrust.
Direct Trusted Agent accreditation recognizes excellence in health data processing and transactions, and ensures compliance with industry-established standards, HIPAA regulations and the Direct Project. The DIRECTTRUST PRIVACY & SECURITY accreditation program accredits against HIPAA Privacy and Security requirements for organizations also pursuing DirectTrust accreditation as a Health Information Service Provider (HISP).
Through DirectTrust’s comprehensive third-party review, RosettaHealth was evaluated in areas of privacy, security and confidentiality; technical performance; business practices and organizational resources as it relates to Directed exchange participants. In addition, DirectTrust reviewed the organization’s process of managing and transferring protected health information and determined that the organization meets or exceeds all DirectTrust criteria and industry standards.
“The healthcare marketplace has an undeniable need for guidance and accountability on the secure and interoperable exchange of protected health information (PHI). Health Information Service Providers must carry out the responsibility for managing the intricate parts of the deployment of digital certificates for stakeholders to take advantage of Directed exchange of health information,” said Lee Barrett, Commission Executive Director, DirectTrust. “We congratulate RosettaHealth who has established and upheld a superior level of trust for their stakeholders by achieving the highest standards in privacy, security and confidentiality.”
RosettaHealth’s HealthBus solution is a SaaS-based data transport platform, which normalizes and transports health events and records (EHRs) at scale across a variety of organizations such as hospitals, HIEs, and urgent and acute care systems. The platform allows for health data exchange over wide geographic areas at a fraction of the cost and effort of traditional methods.
“This accreditation reinforces our long-term commitment to security and privacy, which helps reinforces our vision of breaking down all health data exchange barriers,” said Kevin Puscas, CTO of RosettaHealth. “We will continually focus on ensuring that the safe exchange of health data will lead to better care outcomes, and reduce overall costs.”
