When users log in for the first time, they are presented with two agreements:
- The Payment Gateway Merchant Service Agreement (required)
- The Business Associate Agreement (optional)
Users must acknowledge these agreements before entering Practice Management Bridge.
About the Business Associate Agreement (BAA)
Rectangle Health is committed to educating practices on how to safeguard sensitive patient Protected Health Information (PHI). Each party has an obligation to protect patient information. The BAA is an agreement between the Business Associate (Rectangle Health) and the covered entity (all users) assuring that all parties involved can safeguard the security and integrity of PHI.
Users can opt out of the BAA if it is not warranted, due to either limited use of the features within Bridge Payments or in the case of veterinarian practices.
