Who needs to comply with HIPAA?

  • Healthcare Providers: Doctors, clinics, dentists and more.
  • Health Plans: Insurance companies, HMOs, Medicare and Medicaid.
  • Healthcare Clearinghouses: Organizations that process health information.
  • Business Associates: Third-party service providers handling PHI on behalf of a covered entity.

What is a HIPAA Business Associate Agreement (BAA)?

Business Associate Agreement (BAA) is a crucial legal document that ensures compliance with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act. It is established between a covered entity and a business associate (DocuSeal, LLC) to safeguard protected health information. The BAA outlines each party's responsibilities regarding the use, disclosure, and protection of PHI, helping to maintain the privacy and security of sensitive health information.
