PHIPA Compliance & Security Deep-Dive
Built-in PHIPA-aligned controls, including a signed PHIPA Agent Agreement on eligible Enterprise plans, unlimited secure form templates, advanced hashing technology ensuring tamper-proof documents, comprehensive audit trails for complete transparency, and Canadian data residency options.
Alleen het juiste personeel heeft toegang tot PHI
Manage your healthcare workforce with our PHIPA-aligned e-signature platform: add or remove users, establish managerial hierarchies, enforce two-factor authentication, enable Single Sign-On (SSO), and restrict personal health information to authorized personnel based on role.
Audittrails die niet te manipuleren zijn
Uitgebreide tracking van wie patiëntinformatie bekijkt, bewerkt of opent, waardoor verantwoording en compliance verificatie mogelijk is.
Sign.Plus gebruikt cryptografische methoden om de integriteit van documenten te bevestigen, zodat uw elektronische formulieren niet zijn gewijzigd of gemanipuleerd.
Keep Processing and Storage in Canada
Eligible Enterprise customers can select a Canadian data residency location, including Toronto. PHIPA does not require personal health information to remain in Ontario, so this is a configuration choice organizations can make based on their own requirements.
Backup and recovery processes remain in place regardless of the selected residency location.
Verifieer de identiteit van elke ondertekenaar
Voeg een extra authenticatielaag toe die de identiteit van elke ondertekenaar bevestigt voordat ze uw document bekijken, waardoor ongeautoriseerde toegang wordt geblokkeerd en frauduleuze goedkeuringen worden voorkomen.
Sign.Plus geeft u drie flexibele verificatieopties, ID-check met gezichtsvergelijking, een door de afzender gedefinieerde toegangscode of een eenmalige SMS-code, zodat u de beveiliging kunt afstemmen op elke workflow en de ondertekenervaring snel en moeiteloos kunt houden.

PHIPA eSignature FAQ
What is PHIPA?
PHIPA, the Personal Health Information Protection Act, is Ontario's health-data privacy law governing how personal health information is collected, used, disclosed, and protected.
Is Sign.Plus PHIPA compliant?
Yes, Sign.Plus supports PHIPA-aligned workflows for eligible Enterprise organizations that enable Advanced Security Controls and sign a PHIPA Agent Agreement.
How do I activate PHIPA compliance in Sign.Plus?
Choose an Enterprise plan, activate Advanced Security Controls, request and sign the PHIPA Agent Agreement from Regulatory Compliance settings, and complete the agreement validation process. Once validated, the PHIPA status is reflected in your account.
Do I need a BAA for PHIPA?
No. A Business Associate Agreement (BAA) is used for HIPAA. For PHIPA, eligible customers sign a PHIPA Agent Agreement instead, reflecting Sign.Plus's role as an agent under PHIPA section 17.
Does Sign.Plus offer Canadian data residency?
Yes. Eligible Enterprise customers can select a Canadian data residency location for Sign.Plus, including Toronto. PHIPA does not generally require personal health information to remain in Ontario, so organizations should choose residency settings based on their own requirements.
