Key Components of the SRA Process:

  • Compliance Check: Ensure full alignment with HIPAA Security Rule requirements.
  • Action Plan Development: Deliver a detailed action plan with targeted remedies and risk mitigation strategies.

This thorough and structured approach helps your organization stay compliant with HIPAA regulations while effectively managing and addressing security risks.

Stay prepared with audit support, customizable policies, and tailored training programs to simplify OSHA compliance.

OSHA Hazard Risk Assessment

Evaluate specific risks related to various job duties and establish appropriate safety precautions. 

The OSHA Hazard Risk Assessment (HRA) is a vital tool that helps organizations document the Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) requirements for their staff in compliance with OSHA standards. As mandated by OSHA regulations, employers must assess the workplace to identify any existing or potential hazards that require PPE to protect workers.

The HRA provides detailed insights into identified hazards and recommended protective measures, ensuring that clients can effectively communicate these requirements to their workforce.

All documentation related to the Hazard Risk Assessment, including PPE requirements and risk management strategies, is securely stored within the HCP application. This ensures easy access for ongoing review, updates, and compliance management.

Virtual Safety Data Sheet (SDS) Binder

Easily access and manage chemical safety information online, ensuring compliance and quick response in emergencies.

In compliance with OSHA's Hazard Communication Standard (29 CFR 1910.1200), employers must provide staff access to hazard information related to hazardous chemicals used in the workplace. This includes maintaining an inventory of these chemicals, ensuring that manufacturer-supplied Safety Data Sheets (SDS) are readily accessible, labeling chemical containers with hazard information, and training staff on protective measures.

With HCP's Virtual SDS Binder, clients and their staff have online access to a comprehensive binder containing all Safety Data Sheets for hazardous chemicals used at each location. The database is managed by HCP, which ensures that clients are notified of any updates from the manufacturers. The Virtual SDS Binder includes a desktop shortcut link for quick access, which is particularly useful in emergencies, ensuring that hazard information is always readily available.

Additionally, the hotline is accessible online for all staff members. Clients will be notified of each anonymous report and may request assistance from their dedicated compliance team to address and resolve any concerns effectively.

Exclusion Monitoring 

Mitigate compliance risks by ensuring individuals and entities are eligible to participate in federal and state healthcare programs.

A vital process that helps healthcare organizations and their business associates comply with federal and state regulations. It ensures that individuals and entities are not excluded or sanctioned from participating in federal and state healthcare programs. By verifying that employees, contractors, and vendors are not barred from providing services under these programs, exclusion monitoring helps mitigate risks and maintain compliance.

Compliance Committee Meetings

Clients will receive quarterly reminders to schedule Compliance Committee Meetings, ensuring consistent oversight and adherence to compliance requirements.
