HIPAA Compliance
for Dentists in Houston, TX

calls for your practice to complete a risk assessment and evaluate the assessment on a regular basis (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 assessment isn’t a 5-minute online list as some agencies claim. Rather, a detailed, HIPAA-acceptedthreat assessment generally calls for 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 don’t worry: The Digital Dentist does all the heavy lifting for you.

The Management Plan is essential for proper compliance. It needs to be completed by specialists, such as The Digital Dentist, who has been performing risk assessments and Management Plans for 5+ years.

The Digital Dentist’s HIPAACheck service involves the risk analysis, management plan, a Policies and Procedures Manual, routine evaluations, plus $500,000 of cyber liability coverage to help your dental practice stay HIPAA compliant in Texas, Houston – all for about the same price as of a cup of coffee!
