 According to the US Federal Trade Commission “Medical Providers are creditors under the Red Flag Rule.” Your practice or facility is a “creditor” if you regularly:
- Extend, renew, or continue credit;
- Arrange for someone else to extend, renew, or continue credit;
- Are the assignee of a creditor who is involved in the decision to extend, renew, or continue credit.
 Under the Rule, “credit” means an arrangement by which you defer payment of debts or accept deferred payments for the purchase of property or services. In other words, payment is made after the product was sold or the service was rendered. Even if you’re a non-profit or government agency, you still may be a creditor if you accept deferred payments for goods or services.”
Dr. Robert Kolodner, National Coordinator for Health Information Technology at the US Department of Health And Human Services, has noted that medical identity theft stories are being documented at an increasing rate Read the shocking findings at:

How You Must Comply
The Rule doesn’t tell you specifically what your red flags program must look like. In some respects, that would be too easy! Instead, it gives you flexibility to implement a program that best suits your business or organization, as long as it meets the Rule’s requirements. There is no need to second-guess. If you have a program in place and want to meet the requirement for staying current, or if plan on meeting the requirement’s of the Federal Trade Commission Laws requiring a Red Flag Rules Program, Order Your Customized Program Now.
Your starting point for developing a program is the Guidelines issued with the Red Flags Rule, available at
www.ftc.gov/os/fedreg/2007/november/071109redflags.pdf.
(The Guidelines are on pages 63773-63774 of the document.)
