Iatric Systems Expands Patient Privacy Solution Suite with Launch of Auditor’s Desktop


Solution analyzes & prioritizes potential privacy violations for quick, corrective action

Boxford, MA – January 13, 2015 –- Iatric Systems, Inc., a comprehensive healthcare IT integration company, today expanded its robust suite of patient privacy solutions with the launch of Auditor’s DesktopTM. Hospitals can achieve HIPAA compliance, save time and reduce risk with the new solution that analyzes potential privacy violations and ranks them by severity for swift action.

Auditor’s Desktop complements Security Audit ManagerTM from Iatric Systems, which has, since 2003, enabled hospitals and health systems to fully audit electronic access to Protected Health Information (PHI) and catch potential privacy breaches.

Unlike other solutions that merely aggregate audit logs and offer reports, Auditor’s Desktop performs a daily risk analysis across multiple audits, identifies possible inappropriate actions and presents the information in one audit. This intuitive and efficient approach gives privacy officers the data they need to quickly decide whether a breach occurred and take action where needed.

“Auditor’s Desktop is the next-generation solution for protecting patient privacy and preserving patient trust. There’s truly nothing else like Auditor’s Desktop today,” said Rob Rhodes, Senior Director of Patient Privacy Solutions at Iatric Systems. “Auditor’s Desktop helps hospitals reduce the number of false positives so they can quickly determine and document whether an access was appropriate. Prioritizing events by risk helps our customers focus on the accesses with the highest probability of being inappropriate. This helps organizations more easily protect patient data and achieve HIPAA and HITECH compliance while meeting Meaningful Use requirements.”

Since 2003, Security Audit Manager has enabled hospitals and health systems to fully audit PHI access and catch potential privacy breaches. And now, by combining the analytical power and algorithms that make up Auditor’s Desktop, healthcare organizations can more effectively and accurately identify risk. Auditor’s Desktop features and benefits include:

  • Advanced analysis and intelligence of user/patient history by continually learning about previous audits
  • Automatic assignment of weights regarding the likelihood of inappropriate behavior
  • Intuitive display of ranked list for audit determination with features that allow auditorsto document an audit determination for each audit reviewed
  • Alignment with HIPAA and other government requirements
  • Increased productivity by combining audit results into a simple, side-by-side view,eliminating the need to individually review multiple audits

“Iatric Systems began offering privacy solutions two years before the HIPAA Security Rule went into effect in 2005, so for more than a decade we have helped healthcare organizations protect patient privacy,” said Frank Fortner, President of Iatric Systems. “Electronic patient data is vulnerable and needs protection, which is why Iatric Systems has focused on developing and evolving our patient privacy solutions, such as Auditor’s Desktop. It’s rewarding to help our customers more effectively protect patient information and preserve patient trust.”
