HIPAA Compliance for Dentists in St. Joseph, MO

calls for your practice to complete a risk assessment and review the assessment routinely (see 45 C.F.R. § 164.308(a)(1)). Further, your assessments have to consist of all administrative, physical, and digital systems in your practice.

A risk assessment isn’t a 5-minute online checklist as some agencies claim. Rather, an extensive, HIPAA-approvedrisk assessment often requires around 3 to 5 hours to complete. And, if done correctly, the assessment should 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.

The Management Plan is important to your compliance. It must be performed by experts, like The Digital Dentist, who has been performing threat assessments and Management Plans for over 5 years.

The Digital Dentist’s HIPAACheck services incorporate the risk analysis, management plan, a Policies and Procedures Manual, regular evaluations, plus $500,000 of cyber liability insurance coverage to help your dental practice stay HIPAA compliant in Missouri, St. Joseph – all for around the same price as of a cup of coffee!
