Healthcare Provider Secures Patient Data with Compliance Framework

Healthcare Provider Secures Patient Data with Compliance Framework

Client: Multi-location healthcare provider (200+ employees).

Industry Context:

 Healthcare organizations face strict HIPAA compliance regulations while needing to enable telehealth, secure messaging, and data retention policies.

Challenge:

·       Patient data was shared via email and even text, creating compliance risks.

·       No centralized telehealth platform; doctors used personal video apps.

·       Devices (laptops, tablets) lacked security monitoring.

·       Needed a scalable solution for future expansion to more clinics.

Solution (Tech Driven Solutions Approach):

1.       Implemented Microsoft Teams for Healthcare for HIPAA-compliant video consultations.

2.       Configured Microsoft Intune for mobile device management and app security.

3.       Deployed endpoint protection across 200+ laptops and tablets.

4.       Designed and enforced data retention, classification, and destruction policies using Microsoft Purview.

5.       Trained staff on compliance best practices and secure patient data handling.

Results:

·       Passed HIPAA audits with no violations.

·       Reduced IT security incidents by 65% in the first 6 months.

·       Enabled secure telehealth visits for 5,000+ patients across multiple locations.

·       Boosted staff productivity by consolidating all communication tools into Teams.
