HIPAA help for Hawaii health care

The HIPAA Security Rule requires health care providers and their business associates to protect electronic patient health information and to analyze the risks to it. We work with medical and dental practices; behavioral and allied health providers, such as counseling, therapy, chiropractic and physical therapy; multi-location clinics and small hospitals; and business associates such as billing companies and law and CPA firms that handle patient data.

Start with the Security Risk Analysis

The Security Risk Analysis finds where patient information lives in your business, what could put it at risk and what to fix first. We update it every year, then write your HIPAA security policies and procedures to match how your practice really works.

Safeguards your team will use

We put technical safeguards in place, including multi-factor authentication, encryption, access controls, audit logging and backups, and train your staff on HIPAA security. Choose a one-time HIPAA Posture Improvement Project, or make HIPAA part of a cybersecurity program we build and manage with you.
