Key Elements Of HIPAA Compliance

HIPAA law includes various legal obligations for covered entities and business associates. Some of the most critical areas include:

  • Privacy rule compliance: Helps ensure patient information is protected and only disclosed under permitted circumstances.
  • Security rule requirements: We help implement safeguards to protect electronic protected health information (PHI) from breaches and unauthorized access.
  • Breach notification: Our attorney can help you understand what constitutes a breach and the required steps for notifying affected individuals and authorities.
  • Business associate agreements (BAAs): We draft and review contracts with vendors handling PHI to ensure compliance.
  • Employee training and policies: Involves establishing clear procedures and training employees to prevent accidental HIPAA violations.

Each of these areas requires legal help to avoid potential compliance pitfalls. Our firm helps ensure your organization is well-prepared to meet these obligations and minimize legal risks.
