Startel Secure Messaging Announced

Startel Corporation’s new secure messaging application stores protected health information (PHI) securely on mobile devices, encrypts PHI messages during transmission, and protects messages upon delivery. Distinguishing itself from many other applications, secure messaging also enables secure, peer-to-peer communication between smartphones. With the release of this new secure messaging system, health clinicians now have a secure and efficient means of communication – with comprehensive audit trails and reporting capabilities.

Fully compliant with HIPAA, HITECH, GLBA, and SOX, Startel Secure Messaging utilizes Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology. Startel’s secure messaging application is currently available for iOS (Apple Mobile OS), Android (Google OS), and Blackberry (RIM OS). The application can be enabled in two easy steps:
1) Download from a Web-based application marketplace.
2) Enter a unique registration ID supplied by a sponsoring organization.
Says William Lane, president of Startel Corporation, "While the application itself is free, the sponsoring organization needs to subscribe to Startel's SMS Service or make other cost-effective arrangements with Startel. This way Startel is not placed between our customers and our customer’s clients."
