From the EMR & HIPPA Forum:
As was announced by Microsoft a long time ago, support for Windows XP is
ending on April 8, 2014. For most of us, we don’t think this is a big deal and
are asking, “Do people still use Windows XP?” However, IT support people in
healthcare realize the answer to that question is yes, and far too much.
With Microsoft choosing to end its support for Windows XP, I wondered what
the HIPAA implications were for those who aren’t able to move off Windows XP
before April 8. Is using Windows XP when it’s no longer supported a HIPAA
violation? I reached out to Mac McMillan, CEO & Co-Founder of CynergisTek
for the answer:
