The healthcare industry has unique needs and challenges, and one of the most critical aspects of healthcare technology is ensuring that patient data is kept secure and confidential. The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) is a critical regulation in the United States that governs how personal health information (PHI) is handled, stored, and transmitted. For software developers, ensuring that the applications they create are HIPAA compliant software development is essential when dealing with healthcare data. 1. Protect the privacy and security of health data (known as Protected Health Information or PHI). 2. Ensure the portability of health insurance when people change jobs. 3. Improve healthcare efficiency and reduce fraud by streamlining administrative processes. HIPAA compliance involves various components, including the Privacy Rule (which governs how PHI is used and disclosed) and the Security Rule (which outlines how to protect electronic PHI or ePHI). Why HIPAA Compliance is Important for Software Developers For developers, building software that complies with HIPAA regulations is crucial to: • Protect patient privacy: Non-compliant software can expose sensitive patient data, leading to privacy violations and severe penalties. • Ensure legal compliance: Failure to comply with HIPAA can result in hefty fines, legal actions, and loss of business. • Maintain trust: Healthcare providers and organizations rely on HIPAA compliant software to protect patient data. Ensuring compliance helps build trust with clients and users. • Prevent security breaches: Given the rise in cyberattacks targeting healthcare data, ensuring software is HIPAA-compliant is essential to avoid security breaches and their potential consequences. source: https://www.osplabs.com/hipaa-compliant-software-development/

It would be great for your team to think about how to make existing accounts into admin accounts and how to have that ability shut off. Possibly have more than one admin per entity as well for a fail safe and security.

The filter for the Bank Deposits report and summary is prompting for "Funds Available on or After" and "Funds Available on or Before". However, the report query is using the "Created at" field rather than the "Available on" field (please compare to the attached csv). Please change either the prompt or the query so that they are consistent. In order to see funds Actually Available On Nov-1, I had to prompt Oct-31. We would prefer to query the "Available on" field.

Tithly only has Credit Card, Cash and Cheque options as Payment Types, I record other Types under Cash and make note on the Memo section. For example, we use Square Terminals, or E-transfer in Canada. Since, you don't have other Payment Types, when generating the Tax Receipts at the end of the year, is it possible to opt out the Payment Type from the Tax Statement? For example, someone use credit card to donate using our Square terminal, we record it as Cash. Donors may get confused when they see the Tax Statement. I know some organizations prefer or require Payment Type column. Hence, requesting option to at our end to add or not, Not requesting to remove it for everyone. Thank you! Yan

This report should also summarize totals: Gross, Each Fund, Fees

Similarly to the option on forms to add new people as a contact, I would love the option for people who are created via a specific form to be added into a specific people category. Currently there only seems to be the ability to have all newly created people go automatically into one category. Eg. Our categories are: Congregation Visitors/New People Community External Contacts We ran an event on behalf of another organisation, including ticketing through elvanto and our website. And every person was added to our Congregation category. We also have forms specifically targeted towards new people so would like to make them automatically be added to the correct category rather than going straight into congregation.

While I can edit the name/label of a custom people field, I cannot edit the type. I understand there would be limitations in transferring data across if I had a text field and wanted to change it to a checkbox, however I simply want to change a single line to a multiple line custom field.
