QuickBooks by Intuit is a popular accounting software solution – available as an online SaaS solution or a downloadable desktop solution – that offers a range of financial management packages for small and medium sized businesses.
QuickBooks is not HIPAA compliant and cannot be used to create, collect, store, or transmit Protected Health Information unless the desktop version of the software is used via a third party hosting service that supports HIPAA compliance. However, due to the cost of deploying QuickBooks Desktop on a third party hosting service, it may be better for healthcare providers to use a HIPAA compliant QuickBooks alternative.
