HIPAA Compliance for Dentists in Columbia, MO

requires your practice to perform a risk assessment and evaluate the assessment routinely (see 45 C.F.R. § 164.308(a)(1)). Additionally, your assessments need to consist of all administrative, physical, and electronic systems within your practice.

A risk analysis is not a five-minute online list as some agencies assert. Rather, a thorough, HIPAA-acceptedrisk assessment often requires around 3 to 5 hours to complete. And, if done correctly, the assessment needs to generate a “treatment plan” called a HIPAA Management Plan. But don’t worry: The Digital Dentist takes care of all the heavy lifting for you.
