Vancouver, British Columbia – Identillect Technologies Corp. (TSX-V:ID) (the “Company” or “Identillect”) is pleased to announce its premier partnership with the National Association of Professional Agents (“NAPA”).
NAPA reaches a user base of over 100,000 health insurance professionals in the United States, which equates to 20% of total health insurance professionals nationwide. They have chosen Identillect’s user-friendly email security solution Delivery Trust™ as their preferred email security solution to ensure compliance in digital communications.
NAPA and Identillect are working to provide an email security solution to health insurance professionals across the USA who are seeking to meet compliance requirements.
Todd Sexton, President and CEO of Identillect, states, “We are thrilled to be working with this highly regarded National Association. Partnering with reputable organizations is a large part of our business model to grow our subscriber base, and we envision that a vast majority of NAPA’s relationship network will adopt the Delivery Trust™ platform in the coming months.”
NAPA offers their members a range of compliance tools to meet Health Insurance Portability and Accountability (“HIPAA”) regulations. NAPA achieves this by providing members with compliance knowledge, resources, and solutions in the health insurance space in the United States.
HIPAA has become a significant influencer on how business is conducted as it relates to the medical industry. This regulation mandates that any patient medical information must be secured, at rest or in transit, by a medical provider, covered entity, or associate. This regulation is changing the landscape for the medical field and other industries related to medical services due to the increasing amount of data breaches. There are half a million professionals in health insurance alone, and millions more represented in the health services industry, which must comply with this regulation.
Recent federally initiated HIPAA audits have created a sense of urgency in the healthcare and health insurance industry. Professionals in these regulated sectors are finding themselves in need of compliant security technology to avoid penalties and fines.
