drchrono started working in the medical billing space 2.5 years ago, the surprising thing is that all of this information is already out there. Medical billing condition/procedure codes that are electronically reported by 90% of doctor's offices already disclose all of this information across secure channels to insurance companies and government payers.

drchrono takes security really seriously! The Doctor is our only customer and we always use encryption and security standards to make sure no data is ever compromised and never shared with any 3rd party.

Healthcare information is even more important to keep private than financial information. If you were bankrupt 5 years ago, nobody cares (you could be a millionaire today.) But if you had a serious medical condition 5 years ago, that still affects you for the rest of your life and could be used to unfairly discriminate against a patient.)

In addition to following HIPAA standards, we are in the process of getting certified for Meaningful Use criteria by a 3rd party government certified laboratory for security and encryption standards.
