Compliance

Compliance is a legal mandate for business owners for protecting data and privacy. Audiology practices must be compliant with HIPAA and credit card processing (PCI). Together, we can ensure that you are compliant with these requirements.

Federal fines for HIPAA non-compliance, for example, are based on the level of perceived negligence. Fines can range from $100 to $50,000 per violation, up to a maximum penalty of $1.5 million per year for each violation.

Let us help you evaluate, design, and implement the required safeguards for:

  • HIPAA Security and Privacy Rules
  • Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS)

If you are looking to purchase or adopt technology, including cloud computing or email, and looking for answers about which are HIPAA compliant, read our page on Is that technology “HIPAA Compliant?”
