But in few places does that take on more importance when it comes to protecting confidential data. And in few industries is there a greater appreciation for data security than in the healthcare industry. Keeping Personal Healthcare Information (PHI) secure and private is both legally mandated, and is also integral to maintaining the trust and confidence of clients. These days, data breaches of both financial information and Personally Identifiable Information (PII) occur at an alarmingly frequent basis. And even for companies that invest heavily in data protection, often those breaches occur at the weak points: third party vendors handling data. In the healthcare industry this is further complicated by HIPAA. Not only must any vendors handling data take security seriously, but they must understand the intricacies applicable specifically to PHI as mandated by HIPAA.

However, a direct mail campaign could still be your best solution.
