HIPAA Compliance for Dentists in Hampton, VA

requires your practice to perform a risk assessment and evaluate the assessment routinely (see 45 C.F.R. § 164.308(a)(1)). Additionally, your assessments have to include all administrative, physical, and digital systems used in your practice.

A risk assessment is not a 5-minute online checklist as some agencies state. Instead, a thorough, HIPAA-approvedthreat assessment commonly calls for 3-5 hours to complete. And, if done correctly, the assessment needs to generate a “treatment plan” called a HIPAA Management Plan. But don’t worry: The Digital Dentist takes care of all the heavy lifting for you.

The Management Plan is important for proper compliance. It has to be completed by professionals, such as The Digital Dentist, who has been performing risk assessments and Management Plans for 5+ years.

The Digital Dentist’s HIPAACheck service involves the risk analysis, management plan, a Policies and Procedures Manual, regular evaluations, plus $500,000 of cyber liability insurance to help your dental practice stay HIPAA compliant in Virginia, Hampton – all for about the same price as of a cup of coffee!
