HIPAA Compliance for Dentists in Gaithersburg, MD

requires 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 needs to consist of all administrative, physical, and digital systems used in your practice.

A risk analysis isn’t a five-minute online checklist as some agencies assert. Instead, a thorough, HIPAA-acceptedthreat assessment normally calls for between 3 to 5 hours to carry out. And, if done the right way, the assessment needs to generate a “treatment plan” called a HIPAA Management Plan. But not to worry: The Digital Dentist does all the heavy lifting for you.

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

The Digital Dentist’s HIPAACheck service incorporates the risk analysis, management plan, a Policies and Procedures Manual, regular reviews, plus $500,000 of cyber liability coverage to help your dental practice stay HIPAA compliant in Maryland, Gaithersburg – all for about the cost of a cup of coffee!
