HIPAA Compliance
for Dentists in Smithtown, NY

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

A risk assessment is not a five-minute online list as some agencies claim. Instead, an extensive, HIPAA-acceptablerisk assessment often requires between 3 to 5 hours to perform. And, if done properly, the assessment should generate a “treatment strategy” called a HIPAA Management Plan. But not to worry: The Digital Dentist takes care of all the heavy lifting for you.

The Management Plan is crucial for proper compliance. It should be completed by specialists, such as The Digital Dentist, who has been performing threat assessments and Management Plans for more than 5 years.

The Digital Dentist’s HIPAACheck service consists of the risk analysis, management plan, a Policies and Procedures Manual, routine reviews, plus $500,000 of cyber liability insurance to help your dental practice stay HIPAA compliant in New York, Smithtown – all for around the same price as of a cup of coffee!
