HIPAA Compliance FAQ
What does HIPAA compliance actually require?
HIPAA covers three rules: the Security Rule (administrative, physical, and technical safeguards for ePHI), the Privacy Rule (patient rights and permitted uses/disclosures), and the Breach Notification Rule (response to unauthorized disclosures). Our HIPAA compliance services cover all three — annual risk assessment, written policies, workforce training, BAA management, and incident response.
Do I need a HIPAA compliance service provider if I already have an MSP?
An MSP manages your IT. A HIPAA compliance service provider develops and maintains your written information security program, handles risk assessments, prepares evidence for OCR audits, and manages Business Associate Agreements. GXA does both through our gShield vCISO Compliance tier.
How much do HIPAA compliance services cost?
Our HIPAA compliance services are bundled into the gShield vCISO Compliance tier, which includes the Vanta GRC platform, annual risk assessment, policy development, and audit response support. Cost scales with your organization's size. Contact us for a customized quote.
Can you handle an OCR audit response?
Yes. GXA has experience responding to Office for Civil Rights (OCR) audits and breach investigations. We coordinate evidence collection, manage communication, and align your documentation with OCR expectations. Our vCISO attends calls when needed.
Do you provide HIPAA-compliant IT services?
Yes. GXA is SOC 2 Type II attested, operates under signed BAAs with our healthcare clients, and configures your environment (Microsoft 365, Azure, endpoints, backup, email) to meet HIPAA Security Rule technical safeguards. We also provide HIPAA-compliant managed IT services and helpdesk support.
What's included in a HIPAA risk assessment?
A comprehensive risk assessment covers ePHI inventory, data flow mapping, control gap analysis against the Security Rule, likelihood/impact scoring, and a prioritized remediation plan. Our assessments are OCR-ready and produce evidence your auditors expect to see.
Do you help with BAA management?
Yes. We maintain a BAA tracker — every vendor that touches ePHI needs a Business Associate Agreement, and we help you identify which ones do, draft or review the agreement, and keep signatures current.
