While a Security Risk Assessment focuses on technical data protection, a standalone HIPAA Privacy Assessment determines if your daily operations meet the strict standards of the HIPAA Privacy Rule. We provide comprehensive, independent assessment reports available in dedicated Covered Entity and Business Associate versions.

If your medical practice or business already has internal documentation in place, don't leave its validity to chance. Our cost-effective HIPAA Policy Reviews evaluate your existing documents to ensure every current OCR standard—including strict breach response protocols and administrative safeguards—is legally defensible and thoroughly addressed.
Facility Security Plans & Surveys
Under CFR §164.310(a)(1), physical safeguards are a strictly enforced component of your security management process. We conduct on-site or remote physical Facility Security Surveys to evaluate your physical access controls, visitor logs, validation procedures, and workstation placement, developing a formal Facility Security Plan to fully protect your physical ePHI environments.
Business Associate, AI, & Third‑Party HIPAA Governance
Vetting your digital supply chain is critical, especially with the rise of healthcare artificial intelligence. We provide complete Third-Party HIPAA Governance to monitor your Business Associate vendors. Our team handles the entire process—outsourcing the evaluation of vendor compliance, verifying data-sharing safeguards, and ensuring your partners possess the necessary protocols to receive, maintain, or transmit your organization's ePHI.
Virtual HIPAA Compliance Officer (vHCO)
Hourly HIPAA Consulting & Developer Support
Hourly HIPAA Consulting & Developer Support

However, small-to-midsize organizations rarely have the resource overhead for a full-time executive hire. Our Virtual HIPAA Compliance Officer (vHCO) solution bridges this gap, providing fractional, highly experienced compliance leadership to manage your program and defend your practices at a fraction of the cost.

Defensible Compliance vs. Software Subscriptions
Our consulting services are fundamentally different from automated market alternatives. We do not sell:
- Generic, automated HIPAA software subscriptions.
- "Free" policy templates that leave gaps in your security infrastructure.
- One‑time "certification" badges that are not recognized by OCR.
Our hands-on work reflects the high level of human responsibility, thorough documentation, and tailored involvement required to legally defend your compliance under real‑world audit or breach conditions. We intentionally limit our client roster to organizations dedicated to maintaining truly defensible HIPAA standards.
