HIPAA Compliance
for Dentists in Hempstead, NY

requires your practice to perform a risk assessment and review the assessment on a regular basis (see 45 C.F.R. § 164.308(a)(1)). Additionally, your assessment has to consist of all administrative, physical, and electronic systems used in your practice.

A risk assessment is not a five-minute online list as some companies claim. Instead, an extensive, HIPAA-acceptedrisk assessment generally calls for 3-5 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 handles all the heavy lifting for you.

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