Frequently Asked Questions
What are our obligations as a business associate?
Business associates must implement HIPAA Security Rule safeguards, only use PHI as permitted by BAAs, report breaches to covered entities, and ensure subcontractors also comply. You're directly liable for HIPAA violations and can face penalties independently of your clients.
Do we need BAAs with clearinghouses?
Yes. Clearinghouses that process your claims are your business associates (or subcontractors). You must have BAAs in place and ensure they maintain HIPAA compliance. You're responsible for their actions related to the PHI you share.
How do we handle client compliance audits?
Maintain comprehensive documentation of your HIPAA compliance program including policies, risk assessments, training records, and incident logs. Our platform provides audit-ready reports you can share with clients to demonstrate your compliance status.
