YuJa now offers HIPAA-compliant Video Platform instances, along with the ability to sign a Business Associate Agreement (BAA) for clients who rely on vendors and subcontractors to transmit protected health information (PHI). The BAA protects PHI in accordance with HIPAA guidelines.

HIPAA is a federal law that protects sensitive patient health information from being disclosed without a patient’s knowledge or consent. The regulation consists of security and privacy rules and defines a clear set of policies, procedures, and processes which must be in place for companies that store, process, or transmit electronic protected health information (ePHI). HIPAA rules generally require that covered entities and their business associates or vendors enter into contracts to ensure proper safeguarding of PHI.
Obtaining HIPAA compliance and the ability to sign a Business Associate Agreement are an extension of YuJa’s commitment to data protection and privacy in its SaaS-based media solutions. YuJa was evaluated by an independent third party, Cyberguard Compliance.
