Which measure provides the highest level of security for electronic transmission of patient health information under the HITECH Act?
Encryption
Password protection
Firewall implementation
Activity logging
The Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act, abbreviated the HITECH Act allows the encryption of data and ensures that patient health information remains unreadable to unauthorized users during transmission, providing the highest level of security. While passwords, firewalls, and activity logs are important, they do not directly secure the data during its transit as effectively as encryption.
