Look here for both... http://www.hipaadvisory.com/regs/securityandelectronicsign/index.htm
The security regs are still proposed and are expected to be finalized next month. We shall see. It has been widely reported that the electronic signature piece will be postponed and issued under a separate rule. As for implementing the security regs, many organizations have already begun work toward being compliant with the proposed regulations. It is commonly agreed upon that you can not have privacy without security, so many of the security regs help a CE comply with the privacy regs. -----Original Message----- From: Cimbala, Debra [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, September 10, 2002 10:51 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Security standard and electronic signature standard Hi!!!
