HIPAA Compliance for Dentists in Boston, MA

requires your practice to carry out a risk assessment and review the assessment on a regular basis (see 45 C.F.R. § 164.308(a)(1)). Further, your assessment needs to include all administrative, physical, and electronic systems within your practice.

A risk analysis isn’t a five-minute online checklist as some agencies assert. Instead, a comprehensive, HIPAA-acceptedthreat assessment typically calls for around 3-5 hours to perform. And, if done correctly, the assessment should generate a “treatment strategy” called a HIPAA Management Plan. But don’t worry: The Digital Dentist handles all the heavy lifting for you.

The Management Plan is vital to your compliance. It should be completed by experts, such as The Digital Dentist, who has been conducting threat assessments and Management Plans for 5+ years.
