Challenges
HIPAA regulations and sound business practice require the development of formal disaster recovery and business continuity plans. However, many healthcare organizations have an immature, incomplete, or under-funded planning process that is exposing the organization to substantial risk in the event of a disaster. Small and medium-sized organizations in particular often lack the dedicated staff and specialized expertise to develop an effective business continuity plan. Consideration must be given to continuation of service to customers, continuation of phone service during disasters, possible loss of paper records, and creation of a resilient IT infrastructure.
Our Services
Morlok Technologies offers a business continuity planning process that is customized to the needs and complexity level of small to mid-sized healthcare organizations. We will establish an action-oriented planning process and guide you through a timely and cost-effective Business Impact Analysis. We will conduct a Business Continuity Risk Assessment that provides an actionable report to allow you to take immediately steps to reduce the probability or impact of potential disasters. Then we will lead the creation of a Business Continuity Plan that is effective in responding to a wide range of emergencies. Testing of the plan and ongoing updates will ensure that your business continuity plan evolves with your organization, and constantly improves.
