HIPAA Security & Breach Rules
Administrative, physical, and technical safeguards for Protected Health Information. Breach notification thresholds, timelines, and documentation requirements.
Reliable interpretation of medical, clinical, and healthcare policy information. Engagements are guided by HIPAA, HL7, global clinical documentation standards, and the 21st Century Cures Act framework. We work alongside compliance officers, HIPAA Privacy and Security Officers, and clinical operations teams.
Administrative, physical, and technical safeguards for Protected Health Information. Breach notification thresholds, timelines, and documentation requirements.
Health Level Seven standards for clinical data exchange. FHIR, V2 messaging, CDA documents. The foundation for interoperability work and integration projects.
Standards for clinical record completeness, integrity, and retention. Where compliance, billing, and quality of care intersect.
Information blocking provisions, patient access rights, certified health IT requirements. The regulatory pressure that shapes modern EHR and data-sharing decisions.
Required annually under the Security Rule. We deliver one that satisfies auditors and actually identifies your real risk, not a checklist substitute.
BAAs with vendors, partners, and downstream subcontractors. We review the language, the operational reality behind it, and the gaps between the two.
Documented thresholds, decision tree, notification timeline, regulator and patient communication templates. Ready to use before the 60-day clock starts.
Workforce HIPAA training program, role-specific modules, completion tracking, refresh cadence. Evidence-ready.
Complete P&P library covering HIPAA, state law (where stricter), and operational requirements. Versioned, dated, owned by your Privacy and Security Officers.
For OCR investigations, customer audits, and internal compliance reviews, organized evidence, practiced answers, no scrambling.
Healthcare engagements always involve Privacy (HIPAA Privacy Rule, state privacy law) and Security (HIPAA Security Rule under broader cybersecurity). HR crosses where workforce training, sanctions, and access management intersect. We coordinate these naturally.
We do HIPAA operations work as part of our healthcare practice. Risk analysis, P&P, breach response, BAA review, training, audit prep. We are not lawyers; for legal opinions on HIPAA interpretation we work alongside your counsel.
Yes. The operational review (does this BAA reflect how data actually flows?), not the legal opinion (is this enforceable in this jurisdiction?). Counsel handles the latter; we handle the operational gap-closure.
We help you build the breach response plan before you need it, and we will support the operational response if a breach occurs (investigation, documentation, notification logistics). Legal counsel typically leads the actual notification decisions; we provide the operational scaffolding.
Yes. State licensure variation, telehealth-specific HIPAA considerations, recording and consent requirements. Telehealth operations sit on top of standard HIPAA work.
Yes, for organizations handling SUD records. The Part 2 confidentiality framework adds requirements above HIPAA; we map the differences and build the procedures that satisfy both.
The discovery conversation takes 30 to 60 minutes. We respond within one business day.
