Protect patient privacy and secure health data. We offer comprehensive HIPAA compliance services for covered entities and business associates in the healthcare sector.
HIPAA establishes national standards to protect sensitive patient health information (PHI) in the United States, applicable to covered entities and their business associates.
The Security Rule requires appropriate administrative, physical, and technical safeguards to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of electronic protected health information (ePHI).
With fines ranging from $100 to $50,000 per violation (up to $1.5M annually), and a recent regulatory emphasis on business associates, HIPAA compliance is fundamental for healthcare operations.
