Committed to Keeping Patient Information Secure
MTC has gone to great lengths to guarantee the security and confidentiality of all patient information throughout the entire MTC network and transcription process.
Secure and Private Network
At MTC, we recognize that perfect security is not entirely achievable when transmitting data over the Internet. For this reason, MTC continues to rely on secure private networks via firewall protected, impenetrable telephone lines and virtual private networks (VPN) when using IP transmission.
Encryption
All voice and data that is transmitted outside of our clients' facilities and through the MTC network via an IP medium is encrypted to ensure that data is protected at all times during the transmission process from sending to receiving to the returning of transcribed work.
Firewalls
All portions of the MTC network, including both hardware and software are protected by the most secure firewall technology available.
Virus Protection
MTC runs the most updated versions of multiple virus protection programs throughout our network. We ensure that virus scans are performed at several junctures throughout the MTC network including servers at our facilities, servers at the medical facility and on each individual transcriptionist work station.
HIPAA
We have established an internal task force that monitors the HIPAA regulation development for changes and evolving compliance standards. MTC's transcription processes have been developed to ensure the highest level of patient information safety to ensure our compliance with HIPAA.
