HIPAA Compliance for Dentists in Bellingham, WA

requires your practice to carry out a risk assessment and evaluate the assessment on a regular basis (see 45 C.F.R. § 164.308(a)(1)). Additionally, your assessment must include all administrative, physical, and digital systems in your practice.

A risk assessment isn’t a 5-minute online checklist as some companies assert. Instead, a comprehensive, HIPAA-acceptedthreat assessment often requires around 3-5 hours to carry out. And, if done the right way, the assessment needs to 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 has to be performed by specialists, such as The Digital Dentist, who has been performing risk assessments and Management Plans for over 5 years.

The Digital Dentist’s HIPAACheck service includes the risk assessment, management strategy, a Policies and Procedures Manual, routine evaluations, plus $500,000 of cyber liability insurance to help your dental practice stay HIPAA compliant in Washington, Bellingham – all for around the price of your cup of coffee!
