Why do we recommend it?

As a healthcare professional, you are a steward of private personal health information. Unfortunately, since health data is substantially more valuable than other kinds, healthcare professionals are more targeted by cyber criminals than professionals in other industries. There is also the internal risk of employee snooping which is more prevalent than you would think.

You are subject to much stricter privacy regulations and fines—particularly if you are a part of a regulatory College. So, if you or one of your employees were to lose a laptop, experience a network failure, or suffer from a hack that reveals client information—you could suddenly find yourself liable for thousands of dollars in damage. On average, a privacy breach costs $429 for EACH lost health care record. If you have even 100 clients affected by a breach, that could easily amount to a minimum of $42,900 for privacy breach expenses.
