<div dir="ltr">The actual phone calls fall out of the realm of
HIPAA. However voicemails, call recordings, and anything similar
are all considered to be PHI. A vendor would need to be willing
to sign a BAA and assume a large liability in fines if any PHI
from the above is exposed.

DW is correct. VM, efax, and other areas where the call which may
contain ePHI should be secure and encrypted in storage.<br>
<br>
A Business Associate Agreement spells out responsibilities, so you
could give one that in fact limits your liability.<br>
<br>
Much of the ePHI spillage is at the doctors' ends - the smartphones,
speakerphones, transcription recordings, etc.<br>
Many HITECH experts claim the iPhone is the weakest link.<br>

Hi Team Voiceops:<br>
<br>
What is needed for an ITSP to be HIPPA complaint?
Sounds like a<br>
really dark grey area!<br>
