HIPAA Compliance
Protecting Patient Privacy and Ensuring Data Security
Our HIPAA compliance services are tailored to help healthcare organizations protect sensitive Protected Health Information (PHI) while meeting the highest regulatory standards. We provide comprehensive solutions, including Business Associate Agreements (BAAs), Incident Management, Security Risk Assessments (SRAs), and ongoing HIPAA training programs. With policy updates, audit support, and proactive risk management, our services ensure your organization remains compliant, secure, and trusted by patients.
Security Risk Analysis
Safeguarding PHI and Ensuring HIPAA Compliance
Our Security Risk Analysis is a comprehensive evaluation designed to meet HIPAA Security Rule requirements and identify vulnerabilities that could put your organization's protected health information (PHI) at risk. We go beyond a basic checklist; our process thoroughly examines your administrative, physical, and technical safeguards to assess how well your current security measures protect patient data.
Through in-depth questionnaires, policy and procedure reviews, and analysis of your technical environment, we help uncover potential gaps in compliance, security controls, and operational processes. Following the assessment, you'll receive a detailed risk report outlining identified risks, their severity, and actionable recommendations to reduce exposure.
The SRA also serves as a foundation for building or enhancing your HIPAA compliance program. Our team provides ongoing support to address corrective actions, track progress, and maintain readiness for audits or investigations, ensuring your organization is not only compliant but also better protected against breaches and penalties.

It complements the Security Risk Assessment (SRA) by offering a detailed evaluation of your facility's adherence to HIPAA regulations. Designed for use at each location, this tool ensures ongoing HIPAA compliance when conducted annually, helping organizations maintain robust security and regulatory standards.
With the HIPAA Virtual Walkthrough, you can generate detailed internal compliance reports and securely maintain time-stamped documentation to track the effectiveness of your compliance program.
