FairWarning Delivers Out-of-the-Box HIPAA Privacy Auditing for McKesson Family of Healthcare Applications

FairWarning(R) Streamlines HIPAA Compliance for McKesson Customers With Extensible, Optimized Solution for Privacy Auditing Automation

ST. PETERSBURG, FL -- (MARKET WIRE) -- June 26, 2007 -- Today FairWarning announced that its leading privacy auditing solutions have been optimized for a wide range of McKesson healthcare applications. Many FairWarning customers using McKesson applications are benefiting from the optimized solution for automating HIPAA compliance and generating exception-based reporting for compliance policies.

Privacy and security compliance amongst healthcare providers is receiving renewed attention since the United States Department of Health and Human Services, Office of Inspector General conducted its first unannounced HIPAA audit at Piedmont Hospital. On the fourth anniversary of HIPAA, April 23rd, 2007, the government expanded to the HHS Office of Civil Rights the ability to subpoena care providers in relation to patient privacy investigations. These and other government activities indicate that more vigorous enforcement of HIPAA may be forthcoming.

"Establishing a solid foundation of privacy and security auditing in electronic health records is essential to the healthcare industry's viability," said John Wade, chairman elect of HIMSS. "I am delighted to see vendors like FairWarning contribute to a strategic industry direction that I am committed to."

FairWarning® provides the first product of its kind specifically designed to automate the privacy and compliance monitoring of healthcare information systems which were core processes requested by the HHS OIG as part of their unannounced HIPAA audit:

* Examination of activity in information systems that contain or use electronic protected health information

* Regularly review records of information system activity, such as audit logs, access reports, and security incident tracking reports

* Prevent, detect, contain, and correct security violations involving electronic protected health information

* Create, document, and review exception reports or logs, including processes for monitoring for exceptions

* Monitor systems and the network, including a listing of all network perimeter devices such as firewalls and routers

"U.S. care delivery organizations are responsible for putting system auditing controls in place. This is the low hanging fruit of HIPAA security rule safeguards," said Barry Runyon, Gartner Research Director and healthcare analyst. "Without the proper technical controls like system auditing, personal healthcare information (PHI) can be put at risk."

FairWarning® provides an affordable, appliance-based solution that automates healthcare's best practices for reviewing audit logs from systems which access protected health information. FairWarning® provides out-of-the-box support for every major healthcare application including: Cerner Millennium, Cerner Power Chart, Eclipsys E7000, Epic, GE Centricity Access, GE Centricity Patient, GE Centricity Staff, GE PACS, Keane, Kronos, McKesson Caremanager, McKesson Series 2000, McKesson Horizon Expert Documentation, McKesson Meds Manager, McKesson Horizon Patient Folder, McKesson Horizon Surgical Manager, McKesson STAR 2000, McKesson Pathways, McKesson STAR Audit, Misys Laboratory, Misys Radiology, MEDITECH MAGIC, MEDITECH Client / Server, MercuryMD, Siemens Invision, T-Systems, WellSoft Emergency DIS.
