Securing Patient Data: Best Practices for Behavioral Health and Addiction Treatment Professionals
Share
The behavioral health and addiction treatment industries handle some of the most sensitive and valuable patient data in all of healthcare. And yet many professionals continue to rely on outdated, insecure communication tools that put both patients and practices at risk of a cyber-attack. As these threats escalate and as healthcare data becomes increasingly valuable on the dark web, behavioral health professionals need to prioritize the security and privacy of the information shared between them and their patients.
