HIPAA Compliance for Dentists in Worcester, MA

calls for your practice to carry out a risk assessment and review the assessment routinely (see 45 C.F.R. § 164.308(a)(1)). Additionally, your assessment has to include all administrative, physical, and digital systems within your practice.

A risk analysis isn’t a 5-minute online checklist as some companies assert. Rather, a comprehensive, HIPAA-acceptedthreat assessment usually calls for between 3 to 5 hours to perform. And, if done the right way, the assessment needs to generate a “treatment strategy” called a HIPAA Management Plan. But not to worry: The Digital Dentist does all the heavy lifting for you.

The Management Plan is critical for proper compliance. It has to be performed by experts, like The Digital Dentist, who has been conducting threat assessments and Management Plans for more than 5 years.

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