Our HIPAA risk assessment checklist helps healthcare organizations and their business associates identify vulnerabilities in their systems that could expose protected health information (PHI). It lets you evaluate administrative, physical, and technical safeguards in one clear workflow. You can then document gaps, assign follow-up actions, and demonstrate due diligence during audits or reviews.
According to the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services (HHS), risk analysis is the first step in an organization’s Security Rule compliance efforts. With data breaches and OCR audits on the rise, this checklist aids you in avoiding costly fines while improving internal controls. Our template library also includes more tools for cyber security risk assessment, compliance risk assessment, or ISO 27001 risk assessment.
