As a result of OCR’s investigation, the BA revised its HIPAA security procedures, retrained its workforce members, and implemented additional technical safeguards to better protect its systems that maintain ePHI. OCR provided technical assistance to the BA and received assurances that the BA implemented the corrective actions noted.
