Overview

A HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) risk assessment is a crucial component of compliance for healthcare organizations and any business that handles protected health information (PHI). A HIPAA risk assessment is essential because it is a legal requirement, helps protect sensitive health information, verifies compliance, strengthens legal defenses, preserves reputation, and ultimately contributes to the overall security and trustworthiness of healthcare organizations and other entities handling PHI.
