HIPAA Compliance for Dentists in Cambridge, MA

calls for your practice to perform a risk assessment and review 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 in your practice.

A risk assessment is not a 5-minute online checklist as some agencies claim. Instead, a thorough, HIPAA-acceptablerisk assessment generally requires between 3 to 5 hours to complete. And, if done properly, the assessment should generate a “treatment strategy” 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 to your compliance. It should be completed by experts, such as The Digital Dentist, who has been performing threat assessments and Management Plans for 5+ years.
