Who Needs HIPAA Compliance and Why?

HHS HIPAA Rules are very clear about what businesses are considered as Covered Entities and their Business Associates subject to HIPAA regulations.

Covered Entities

  • Healthcare Providers (Doctors, Clinics, Dentists, Pharmacies, Psychologists, Chiropractors, Nursing Homes)
  • Clearinghouses, health information interoperability Services
  • Health Plans, Medicare, Medicaid, Private Insurances
  • Health Maintenance Organizations
  • Government Health Programs

Business Associates

  • Businesses vendor or subcontractor of [Covered Entities] with access to Protected Health Information (PHI / ePHI)
  • Computer consultants, medical equipment manufacturers
  • Medical Billing, Coding, Transcriptionist or Answering Services
  • Emergency medical dispatcher services
  • Healthcare data processing and transmission firms

De-Risk your Business from HIPAA Violation Fines and Penalties

Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) non-compliance has devastating consequences, severe reputation damage, crippling fines and bankruptcy risks, depending on the severity and level of breach. As a Healthcare Provider, Medical Billing Service, Health Plan, Clearinghouse, Health-IT / EMR/ EHR Application Vendor, or a Business Associate handling sensitive health information, you cannot afford to ignore HIPAA compliance, strict rules and regulations designed to protect patients’ privacy and the security.

Did you know that a single HIPAA violation can cost your organization $1.5 million fine?
The HHS OCR HIPAA breach reporting portal shows 595 HIPAA breaches reported in 2022 affecting more than 40 million patients. 2021 was worst year with 686 breaches, beating 2020 with 642 healthcare data breaches.

The HIPAA fines are imposed by the Department of Health and Human Services’ (HHS) Office for Civil Rights (OCR) under 4-tiers penalty structure for violations based on the level of negligence. Fine amount varies for each case, depending on the factors such as the severity of the violation, the number of individuals affected, and the organization’s compliance history. On HIPAA Compliance, there is a lot to learn from the HIPAA breaches cases, as Warren Buffet once said:

It’s good to learn from your mistakes. It’s better to learn from other people’s mistakes.
