HIPAA Compliance for Dentists in Waldorf, MD

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

A risk assessment isn’t a five-minute online checklist as some agencies assert. Rather, a comprehensive, HIPAA-acceptedrisk assessment usually calls for 3 to 5 hours to finish. 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 takes care of all the heavy lifting for you.
