Healthcare Practices

Technology Built
for Patient Care

From patient access and telehealth to HIPAA Security Rule compliance, Fresh Coast Technology Advisors sources and manages the technology that keeps your practice running, secure, and focused on care.

The Practice Challenge

Why Healthcare Practices Have Unique Technology Needs

Patient Access & Scheduling

Missed calls are missed appointments. Practices lose revenue every week to unmonitored phone lines, long hold times, and no-shows that better communication tools could prevent.

Multi-Location, Multi-Provider Complexity

Managing connectivity, communications, and IT across clinics, specialists, and remote providers — each with its own EHR access and staff — creates inconsistency, cost overruns, and security gaps.

HIPAA Security Rule Compliance

Practices are required to maintain a formal, documented security program to protect electronic protected health information (ePHI). Non-compliance carries significant legal, financial, and reputational risk.

EHR & Telehealth Connectivity

Epic, Cerner, athenahealth, and telehealth platforms demand reliable, low-latency connectivity. Downtime in your EHR or a dropped telehealth visit means your entire operation grinds to a halt.

Compliance Deadline: Now

The HIPAA Security Rule Applies to Your Practice

Any practice that creates, receives, maintains, or transmits electronic protected health information (ePHI) is a covered entity under HIPAA — which means the Security Rule applies to you, and enforcement is active.

Penalties for non-compliance include fines up to $50,000 per violation, mandatory corrective action plans, and reputational damage. Fresh Coast can help you build and maintain a compliant security program.
