HIPAA Compliance for Dentists in Kent, WA

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

A risk assessment isn’t a 5-minute online list as some companies claim. Rather, a comprehensive, HIPAA-approvedrisk assessment normally requires between 3 to 5 hours to carry out. And, if done the right way, the assessment should generate a “treatment strategy” called a HIPAA Management Plan. But not to worry: The Digital Dentist handles all the heavy lifting for you.
