6. How should a hospital handle terminating a business associate relationship with a medical
transcription company?

, Answer: The transcription company must provide a certification that all protected health information
(PHI) has been destroyed or returned, and the hospital must retain termination notices for seven years.



The HIPAA Privacy Rule requires the covered entity to have business associate agreements in place with
each business associate. This agreement must always include provisions regarding destruction or return
of protected health information (PHI) upon termination of a business associate's services. Upon notice
of the termination, the covered entity needs to contact the business associate and determine if the
entity still retains any protected health information from, or created for, the covered entity. The PHI
must be destroyed, returned to the covered entity, or transferred to another business associate. Once
the PHI is transferred or destroyed, it is recommended that the covered entity obtain a certification
from the business associate that either it has no PHI, or all PHI it has been destroyed or returned to the
covered entity (Thomason 2013, 18)

2016b, 198)
