HIPAA Compliance for Dentists in Tuscaloosa, AL

calls for your practice to complete a risk assessment and evaluate the assessment on a regular basis (see 45 C.F.R. § 164.308(a)(1)). Further, your assessment has to include all administrative, physical, and digital systems in your practice.

A risk assessment is not a 5-minute online checklist as some companies state. Rather, an extensive, HIPAA-acceptablerisk assessment usually calls for around 3-5 hours to carry out. And, if done correctly, 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.
