Unlock Patient Language Barriers Confidently.

Ensure You Comply With The Updated HHS 1557 Final Rule

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), Office for Civil Rights, and the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services issued a final rule under Section 1557 of the Affordable Care Act, advancing protections against discrimination in health care.

Part of this rule concerns the right of patients who speak no or limited English to an interpreter during their visit and written documentation available in their language at no cost to them.

In addition, Transatlantic Translations Group provides written translation to and from all languages. Given the sensitive nature of medical documentation, we do not use machine translation; instead, we use human translators to translate and review work before delivery to clients.

This ensures that patient information is not held on a server that could eventually be compromised.
