HCAT

• Homeland security and the emerging threats to
  business continuity make a strong case for
  business to ensure the security of its computer
  networks and electronic business processes. HIPAA
  requires such security within the healthcare
  industry and affects physicians and other
  providers, hospitals and institutional care
  givers and health plans (including employers who
  sponsor health coverage).
• HCAT is an exciting new tool that will assess
  your current environment and corresponding
  security compliance level. HCAT will provide a
  clear, concise, easy to understand roadmap
  towards reasonable and appropriate compliance
  specific to your office.
