Texas Compliance FAQs
What is the Texas HIE / HASA and why does it matter?
The Texas HIE / HASA is a key health information exchange infrastructure in Texas. Agencies participating in HIE activities must meet specific cybersecurity requirements. ShieldForce ensures your environment meets all Texas Medical Privacy Act (HB 300) & Breach Notification Law standards.
Does Texas have breach notification requirements beyond HIPAA?
Yes. Texas agencies must comply with both federal HIPAA and state Texas Medical Privacy Act (HB 300) & Breach Notification Law requirements, which may impose stricter breach notification timelines and procedures.
