HIPAA Compliance for
Miami Healthcare.

A HIPAA Security Rule risk assessment is a federally required process to identify and document risks to electronic Protected Health Information (ePHI). Every covered entity and business associate must conduct one and update it regularly. Failure to perform a documented risk assessment is among the most common findings in OCR audits and can result in fines starting at $50,000 per violation. We perform assessments aligned to NIST 800-66, the standard most frequently referenced by auditors.

Yes. As a HIPAA business associate handling PHI on your behalf, we sign a Business Associate Agreement (BAA) with every healthcare client. We also help you manage BAAs with your other third-party vendors (cloud providers, billing services, EHR vendors, etc.) to ensure your entire vendor chain is properly documented under HIPAA.

If a breach is suspected, our 24/7 incident response team immediately helps you investigate, contain, and document the incident. We assist with forensic analysis to determine the scope of PHI impact, prepare HIPAA Breach Notification Rule reports, coordinate with your legal counsel and cyber insurance, and document the incident for OCR. Speed and documentation are critical — most breach penalties relate to delayed or incomplete response.

Costs vary based on practice size, complexity, and current state. A typical small practice (5-20 staff) can expect a one-time risk assessment in the $3,000 to $7,500 range, plus ongoing managed IT and compliance services starting around $150 per user per month. Compared to OCR fines that start at $50,000 per violation and can reach $1.5 million per category per year, HIPAA compliance is one of the highest-ROI IT investments a healthcare practice can make.

Yes. We deploy and support HIPAA-compliant video and messaging platforms including Doxy.me, Zoom for Healthcare, Microsoft Teams (with HIPAA BAA), and our own Voice360 platform. We ensure all telehealth platforms are properly configured, BAAs are in place, and staff are trained on secure use.
