HIPAA · Advisory Service Components

For healthcare organizations, SaaS platforms, and business associates building sustainable compliance programs

Most firms hand you templates and expect your team to figure it out. We build the entire compliance program. We architect the SRA, write the policies, engineer the procedures, and prepare you for OCR scrutiny while your engineers focus on product. From initial risk analysis through full program implementation, we own the documentation so you can own the remediation.

  • Security Risk Analysis For organizations starting the journey or meeting annual requirements. This is not a questionnaire. It is a technical threat model of your architecture (cloud, API, container) to identify where ePHI could actually leak. You get a prioritized engineering roadmap classified by risk level, not a generic finding list. This meets the mandatory requirement of 45 CFR § 164.308(a)(1).
  • Phase 0: Discovery Fast Track For organizations committed to the full build. Accelerated discovery that bypasses the standalone SRA report and flows directly into Advisory. We produce foundational artifacts (Data Flow Diagrams, Asset Inventory, Risk Register) and immediately start building the program. No handoff, no ramp-up, no wasted time.
  • HIPAA Advisory The heavy lift. We create your complete compliance program. We write the HIPAA Management Plan, custom policies that match your modern stack (AWS/Azure/GCP), and procedures your engineers can actually follow. We handle the "Data Rights" workflows for the Privacy Rule and structure your downstream vendor (BAA) governance. We embed with your team to solve implementation challenges, ensuring your documentation matches your reality.
  • Bastion: Audit Defense We stand between you and the regulator. Whether it is a random OCR audit or an investigation following a breach report, we manage the defense. We organize the evidence room, prep your staff for interviews, and handle the technical communications. The engagement ensures your narrative is consistent, your evidence is organized, and your defense is technically sound.
  • Security Rule Modernization For organizations preparing for the "New HIPAA" (NPRM Updates). The proposed 2025 rule changes are massive: mandatory MFA, mandatory encryption, and strict asset inventory requirements. We perform a delta analysis of your current program against the NPRM standards and engineer the upgrades required to meet the new "Non-Negotiable" technical baselines before they become law.
  • Business Associate Strategy For SaaS vendors selling to Enterprise Healthcare. Compliance is a sales blocker. We act as your "Sales Engineering" team for security. We answer the grueling 400-question hospital security spreadsheets, build "Trust Packages" (Whitepapers, SRA Summaries) for your sales team, and advise on architectural segmentation to make your product easier for large health systems to buy.

Every deliverable is custom-written for your architecture. Zero templates. Zero generic language. Documentation your engineers can actually use for operations, onboarding, and audits. When the OCR or a partner audits you, evidence traces cleanly and narratives match reality.
