Why HIPAA compliance matters
Short answer:
It’s a trusted benchmark of data protection that aligns with many Australian privacy rules,including the Australian Privacy Act.
- HIPAA compliance means your patient data is encrypted, access‑controlled, andsecurely handled across all stages.
- In Australia, HIPAA‑based standards often match or exceed local requirements underthe Australian Privacy Act of 1988 and the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs)
- If a tool is HIPAA compliant, it likely already meets many APP standards.
