The HIPAA challenge
HIPAA spans Privacy, Security, and Breach Notification Rules across covered entities and business associates, with steep OCR fines for inadequate risk analysis and uncontrolled PHI.
- Annual risk analysis often outdated and unevidenced
- Administrative, physical, and technical safeguards spread across teams
- Business Associate Agreements scattered and unrenewed
- Workforce training and sanctions hard to prove
- Breach notification timelines (60 days) easy to miss
- OCR audits demanding deep, dated evidence
