SAN JOSE, Calif., Nov. 11, 2009 — A new "Disaster Recovery and Business Continuity Guide (2009)" is now available from DataCare Corporation (http://www.datacare.com). The 2009 guide offers workers' compensation professionals a quick reference to address HIPAA and SAS70 requirements for reducing business risk following a disaster.
This guide offers workers' compensation managers practical tips and best practices to ensure business continuity. It provides guidance for establishing and monitoring systems that completely protect all medical data required to meet HIPAA requirements. In addition, it addresses the unique requirements that workers' compensation programs must satisfy for timeliness and record retention. The guide includes an overview of best practices for designing a disaster recovery strategy. It outlines a practical plan for how an organization can recover and restore urgent functions, whether partially or completely interrupted, within a predetermined time after a disaster or other extended disruption.
The guide is drawn from DataCare's years of experience supporting workers' compensation teams. "The DataCare system allows us a superior method of collecting and storing our documents in a secure manner. By having redundancy of stored images, and the ability to access our documents via the Internet, we have further enhanced our ability to continue our operation in the event of a disaster. We feel that the DataCare system has allowed us to surpass our competitors in the area of document management and allows our clients to receive even better service and results," said Judy Adlam, President & CEO of LWP Claims Solutions.
The "Disaster Recovery and Business Continuity Guide (2009)" is available from DataCare Corporation.
