HIPAA Compliance
Protect patient health information and unlock the healthcare market. Ensure your SaaS platform meets HIPAA requirements for handling PHI.
What is HIPAA?
The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) is a federal law that requires the creation of national standards to protect sensitive patient health information (PHI) from being disclosed without the patient's consent or knowledge.
For SaaS companies, HIPAA compliance is mandatory when your platform processes, stores, or transmits PHI. This includes electronic Protected Health Information (ePHI) and requires implementation of administrative, physical, and technical safeguards.
