The reason for this, is that the none of the information stored with ChiroSimple is governed by PHIPA, in that, it’s ONLY animal health information and NO HUMAN HEALTH information is recorded.

 

Additionally, STANDARDS OF PRACTICE S-022 (https://www.cco.on.ca/wp–content/uploads/2017/10/S-022.pdf) does not apply, since it (once again) was designed for HUMAN HEALTH INFO, not animals.  Albeit, these are great practices for protecting information and at a clinic level, we would strongly suggest our members follow this information as guidelines for security.

 

Rest assured, ChiroSimple will never share any of your information with anyone, unless of course we were court ordered to do so, and at that point would likely discuss with you what to do. Our members always come first.

 

Extensive, ongoing efforts are made to ensure security for our members info and our servers. We use the best security and backup your data regularly, so you can sleep without concern.

 

There is a misunderstood rumor (which is just that and not validated) that Canadian doctors would be in violation, if using online practice tool companies whose servers are located outside of Canada. We have spoken with representatives from the International Privacy Commissioner of Ontario to triple check and to alleviate all concerns our Canadian doctors might have, and that concern is absolutely false and not true. In fact, not only is this issue not valid for animal doctors, but equally this is not the case for any doctor seeing HUMAN patients, either. 

 

 

We are aligned with the leading animal chiro school in Canada, incorporated into their curriculum, they are clearly comfortable using us as their EHR program of choice.

 

In summary:  Canadian doctor need not worry at all about joining ChiroSimple – we are compliant and therefor you are too!
