Certifications
Our Certifications and Associations Include:
ISO 9001:2000 - Quality Management System
SPi Healthcare was the first company of its kind to receive ISO certification in 1995, and the first to achieve ISO 9001:2000 in 2001. ISO 9001:2000 measures quality management, evaluating a broad spectrum of practices including procedure, documentation, policy, communications, personnel, and infrastructure.
ISO/IEC 27001:2005 - Information Security Management System
ISO/IEC 27001:2005 (formerly BS 7799-2:2002) is a standard setting the requirements for an Information Security Management System. It helps identify, manage, and minimize the range of threats to which information is regularly subjected. The standard is designed to ensure the selection of adequate and proportionate security controls that protect information assets and give confidence to interested parties including SPi's clients.
In May 2008, SPi was re-certified for both the ISO 9001:2000 - Quality Management System and ISO/IEC 27001:2005 - Information Security Management System.
HIPAA
The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) was enacted, in part, to create better practices with respect to the Privacy, Security and Confidentiality of Patient Health Information (PHI). Organizations providing healthcare services in the US ("Covered Entities") are required to be compliant with HIPAA guidelines. As a Business Associate, SPi is dedicated to supporting our clients' HIPAA compliance programs by utilizing technology, policies and procedures that comply with HIPAA guidelines.
