Having worked with the Office for Civil Rights (OCR) through investigations and corrective action plans, our HIPAA consultants have built a robust understanding of the best ways to be compliant and audit-ready. Our HIPAA consulting offerings provide insight into your current HIPAA compliance, as well as a roadmap for moving forward with confidence.
Required by HIPAA, SRAs—identifying security risks and mitigation opportunities—are the most commonly cited deficiency by the OCR.
An in-depth examination of your privacy program, policies, and procedures, in preparation for coming changes to the HIPAA Privacy Rule.
Go beyond prevention to truly prepare your organization for a breach.
Required by HIPAA, a Security Risk Analysis is the foundation of a strong compliance program. After all, you can’t create a roadmap to success unless you know where you are starting. Beyond a compliance requirement, SRAs also help your organization identify and mitigate vulnerabilities and protect patient information.
At HIPAAtrek, our Security Risk Analyses are more complete, encompassing more HIPAA regulations than others—so you can fill the gaps and finally find compliance confidence. We address four areas: Risk Analysis, Risk Management, Evaluation, and Application and Data Criticality Analysis, and provide an extensive summary of our findings for your ongoing reference.

Evaluation
