HIPAA Compliance for Dentists in Union City, NJ

calls for your practice to perform a risk assessment and evaluate the assessment regularly (see 45 C.F.R. § 164.308(a)(1)). Additionally, your assessment has to consist of all administrative, physical, and digital systems within your practice.

A risk analysis is not a five-minute online checklist as some agencies claim. Instead, a thorough, HIPAA-acceptedrisk assessment generally calls for around 3 to 5 hours to finish. And, if done properly, the assessment needs to generate a “treatment strategy” called a HIPAA Management Plan. But not to worry: The Digital Dentist handles all the heavy lifting for you.
