MEDVA’s Secure Facility Enables Offshore Staff to Access EMRs like Epic While Maintaining Healthcare Compliance Standards

Published

on

HENDERSON, Nev., April 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — As healthcare data breaches surge to record levels, MEDVA, an award-winning provider of virtual assistant (VA) services, is redefining security in healthcare staffing with the launch of its latest Secure Facility offering. Designed to meet the security requirements of the largest Electronic Medical Record (EMR) provider for global remote staff, this innovative infrastructure enables VAs to work from a dedicated office, satisfying the heightened security needs of healthcare organizations with strict HIPAA and regulatory compliance protocols.

In 2024, the healthcare sector experienced a significant increase in cyberattacks, with over 386 incidents reported, exposing millions of individuals’ health information. Notably, a ransomware attack in February 2024 on UnitedHealth Group’s subsidiary, Change Healthcare, compromised sensitive data, affecting a substantial portion of the U.S. population. These breaches underscore the critical need for enhanced data security measures within the healthcare industry—particularly when working with third-party vendors. The growing demand for remote healthcare staff, driven by telehealth and remote patient monitoring programs, adds further complexities to maintaining data protection and HIPAA compliance. Addressing these challenges requires solutions that not only meet, but exceed industry standards for security and reliability.

A Secure VA Solution to Support Healthcare Organizations

MEDVA’s Secure Facility is a groundbreaking advancement in virtual staffing, enabling off-shore staff to securely access their healthcare organizations’ Epic instance while maintaining strict security and compliance standards. As the first virtual assistant company to obtain access-approval from a major EMR provider, MEDVA maximizes efficiency through secure, compliant outsourcing.

Key features of this new Secure Facility enhancement include:

Multiple Biometric Authentication Access Points – Virtual assistants must undergo fingerprint verification to enter and access their dedicated work locations, ensuring only authorized personnel are permitted on the operations floor.Encrypted Digital Workspaces – VAs are equipped with company-provided workstations with secure enterprise browser functionality that limit the applications and website access to only approved and trusted staff.Physical Environment Security – Workstations are equipped with privacy screens and physical environment monitoring to prevent unauthorized access to data.24/7 Security & IT Support – On-site security teams and a dedicated IT service desk provide continuous compliance monitoring and support for technical concerns.Paperless and Device-Free Workstations – All VAs operate in a fully paperless environment, with personal devices secured during work hours to further mitigate risks of data leaks.On-Site Management Team – Professionals committed to ensuring VA safety and data security, while cultivating a functional, patient-focused, and service-oriented workforce.

This secure facility reflects MEDVA’s commitment to maintaining the highest data protection standards, and will allow healthcare organizations to confidently integrate virtual staffing into their practice workflows.

Virtual Healthcare Staffing Without Compromise

“The increased vulnerability of third-party vendors has made cybersecurity a top compliance issue for healthcare leaders. We believe utilizing remote staff should never jeopardize Protected Health Information (PHI) and sensitive data. That’s why we’ve spent the last few years developing a solution to address this need for healthcare providers and healthcare systems,” said Christine Kowalczyk, CEO of MEDVA. “Our Secure Facility provides healthcare organizations with an innovative solution to leverage the benefits of virtual assistants while maintaining rigorous security and compliance protocols.”

With 90% of MEDVA’s virtual assistants having prior US healthcare experience, providers no longer need to choose between staffing efficiency, cost savings and data security. The Secure Facility VA is an innovative infrastructure that helps organizations delegate administrative tasks like managing patient records, appointment charting, transcription, insurance claims processing, prior authorizations, and medical billing, all within a tightly controlled and secure environment.

Setting the Industry Standard for Secure Virtual Teams

MEDVA has been recognized as the Healthcare Virtual Assistant Company of 2024 by Healthcare Business Review (HBR), underscoring its commitment to transforming healthcare efficiency without compromising regulatory compliance.

“As the need for remote medical staff increases, MEDVA is committed to delivering the most secure and effective virtual assistant services to healthcare organizations,” said Steven Kupferman, DMD, MD, Co-Founder and Chairman of MEDVA. “Our Secure Facility raises the bar for security in virtual staffing by exceeding industry standards and creating a new standard.”

Transforms IP defense from Reactive Takedowns to Sustained Proactive Prevention.

LONDON, May 4, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Tencent today released its 2025 Weixin Brand Protection Report, marking a decade of progress in intellectual property (IP) protection on Weixin. The report shows how Weixin’s Brand Protection Platform (BPP), through close collaboration with brands, community participation, and AI-driven detection, has helped shift enforcement from reactive takedowns to sustained proactive prevention.

A Decade of Global Partnership, Trust, and Progress

For ten years, Weixin has supported brand integrity and advanced IP protection by embedding enforcement directly within its platform to rapidly detect and stop infringement, particularly in fast-growing areas like short-form video and livestream commerce.

“Weixin has built a truly collaborative IP‑protection ecosystem that unites authorities, brands, and users to deliver the next generation of enforcement,” said Danny Marti, Head of Global Public Policy at Tencent. “By leveraging AI, real‑time user reports, advanced analytics, and close partnership with brands and regulators, we’re creating a trusted environment that lets global brands confidently engage with consumers.”

Weixin’s approach connects online detection with offline enforcement, translating digital intelligence into real-world action against counterfeiters. In 2025, the BPP helped authorities pursue 37 cases involving more than 300 suspects and totaling over $430 million in value.

Since 2021 the BPP has grown by more than 50 %. Today it hosts more than 700 brands across 30+ industries and 20+ countries and regions. In the past year, the BPP welcomed 62 new members including several from newly added categories, most notably publishing, which saw the addition of 14 publishers since October 2025.

Additionally, the Weixin IP Protection Alliance was launched in 2025 to co‑develop tools, share intelligence, and deepen brand partnerships. This ecosystem approach, combining technology, users, and brand collaboration, positions Weixin as a model for protecting IP while enabling growth in global and digital markets.

“At PUMA, protecting intellectual property is an important component of maintaining brand integrity and supporting sustainable growth,” said Wei Zhang, Senior Counsel, Brand Protection at PUMA. “Tools such as the BPP contribute to enforcement efforts across digital channels and, in practice, support broader brand protection strategies spanning both online and offline environments.”

User Mobilization at Scale

A key driver of this system is the role users continue to play in helping identify suspected infringement. More than 95% of takedown notices and reports against suspicious personal accounts came from users. Over 99% of reports on suspicious group-chat activity were submitted by users, and more than 96% of infringing accounts were discovered by users.

AI Powers Proactive Prevention

In December 2025, Weixin introduced “Mini-WA,” an AI-powered assistant that delivers real-time support and actionable insights to help brands navigate the platform and improve IP governance. As digital ecosystems grow more complex, Mini-WA empowers brands with intuitive, consistent and proactive guidance, enhancing usability and early detection of potential risks.

With the rise of digital commerce and short‑form content, the BPP demonstrates a proven model for integrated IP protection and significant progress to empower brands, safeguard consumers, and foster trust online and offline.
