FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Any group that handles Protected Health Information (PHI) must follow HIPAA. That includes providers, health plans, and business associates like IT vendors, billing companies, and cloud providers.
Our HIPAA compliance process takes about 1–2 months. We work at your pace to ensure nothing is rushed or overlooked.
An SRA is a yearly HIPAA risk review. It finds risks to electronic PHI and helps you decide what to fix first.
HIPAA violations can lead to fines from $100 to $50,000 per violation, up to $1.5 million per year. In serious cases, they can also lead to criminal charges and loss of trust.
Yes. HIPAA compliance is ongoing. We help with yearly SRA updates, policy reviews, staff refreshers, and day-to-day questions.
A HIPAA gap analysis shows where you do not yet meet the rule. In our tool, it is created right after you finish the security risk assessment.
A HIPAA remediation plan shows what needs to be fixed and the steps to fix it. Ours are created automatically after the SRA.
No. We provide policy templates tuned to HIPAA requirements. You tailor them to your organization rather than writing from zero.
Each staff member should complete policy attestation, HIPAA 101 training, and cybersecurity awareness training each year. Our platform tracks all of it.
