Compliant is not a checkbox. 
It is evidence.

Assess, fix, document. Repeat annually.

Most practices believe they are HIPAA compliant because a policy binder exists and the EHR is “cloud based.” Then an audit, an insurance renewal or a breach exposes the gap: no current risk assessment, no BAA with the IT vendor, backups never verified, and no record of who accessed patient data.

Visionary IT handles the technical side of HIPAA for Arizona practices. We run the security risk assessment, close the gaps we find, and hand you documentation that shows what is protected, how, and when it was last verified.

  • The risk assessment is three years old

    A new EHR, a cloud migration and two new staff later, it describes a practice that no longer exists.

  • We assume the backup is encrypted

    Nobody has verified encryption, retention or a successful restore. Assumptions do not survive an audit.

  • There is no BAA with our IT vendor

    The vendor with admin access to everything has never signed a Business Associate Agreement.

  • Audit trails? Nobody mentioned audit trails

    There is no record of who accessed patient records, from where, or when.

We make compliance verifiable, with evidence on file.

What our HIPAA services cover

Five components that turn compliance from a binder into evidence.

Security Risk Assessment

The formal SRA: where PHI lives, how it flows, what protects it, and a prioritized plan.

Technical Safeguards

MFA everywhere, encryption in transit and at rest, least-privilege access and audit trails.

Backup & Recovery Evidence

Encrypted, 
monitored backups with documented, successful restore tests on record.

BAAs & Vendor Management

Business Associate Agreements with us 
and every vendor 
that touches PHI, 
kept current.

Audit-Ready Documentation

Findings, remediation records and verification dates, organized for auditors and insurers.

Not sure where you stand?

The free HIPAA risk check answers that in one visit. No obligation, no jargon.

HIPAA compliance in 3 components

Our compliance work is broken up into 3 components that can be combined as needed.

Component 1

Assess

What it does

The security risk assessment: inventory where PHI 
lives, evaluate safeguards at each point, and document the gaps.

Benefits

  • Know exactly where patient data is exposed
  • A prioritized plan, not a binder
  • Baseline evidence dated and on file

Component 2

Remediate

What it does

Close the gaps: MFA rollout, encryption, access cleanup, backup verification and BAA execution.

Benefits

  • The biggest risks close first
  • Safeguards implemented, not recommended
  • Vendors held to the same standard

Component 3

Evidence

What it does

Documented verification: restore-test records, audit trails, assessment dates and remediation logs.

Benefits

  • Audit answers ready before the audit
  • Insurer questions answered in minutes
  • Renewal season without the scramble

One assessment or an ongoing program, refreshed as your practice changes.

HIPAA compliance: common questions

Regulators expect a current assessment, refreshed annually, and certain events require a new one: implementing a new EHR, moving systems to the cloud, opening or moving an office, or a security incident. If your last assessment does not reflect how your practice runs today, it is out of date.

A certified technician reviews your MFA, backup and restore verification, BAAs, email security and access controls, and hands you a plain-English gap report with prioritized fixes. It is free and there is no obligation.

We review where PHI lives and flows: email, EHR, backups, file shares, devices and vendor access. Then we evaluate the safeguards at each point, MFA, encryption, access controls, audit trails, backup integrity, and document findings, remediation and a plan your practice can actually follow.

Not automatically. Compliance requires encryption in transit and at rest, access controls, retention, and evidence that restores work. Many practices discover their “backup” was a sync folder or an unverified nightly job. We verify and document yours, including Microsoft 365 backup.

Beyond the signature, it should bind the vendor to real safeguards: MFA on admin accounts, encryption of any PHI they can access, breach notification timelines, restricted subcontractor access, and documented procedures for restoring data. We sign BAAs with every healthcare client and hold our own vendors to the same standard.

Yes. Your EHR vendor is responsible for their platform, but your practice is responsible for how you use it: weak passwords, shared logins, unmanaged devices, email containing PHI and unverified backups are all your side of the shared responsibility model. The assessment covers exactly that.
