    HIPAA FAQs

    Who needs to be HIPAA compliant?

    Covered entities (healthcare providers, health plans, healthcare clearinghouses) and business associates who handle PHI on their behalf must be HIPAA compliant. This includes technology vendors, billing services, and consultants with PHI access.

    What are the penalties for HIPAA violations?

    HIPAA penalties range from $100 to $50,000 per violation, with maximum annual penalties of $1.5 million per violation category. Criminal penalties can include fines up to $250,000 and imprisonment.

    Is HIPAA certification possible?

    There is no official HIPAA certification. Compliance is demonstrated through risk assessments, documentation, and implemented safeguards. However, third-party assessments and attestations are common for business associate validation.

    Can we use AI and LLMs with PHI data?

    Using commercial AI APIs with PHI creates significant HIPAA concerns since data leaves your controlled environment. We help healthcare organizations deploy private LLMs within HIPAA-compliant infrastructure, keeping PHI internal while leveraging AI capabilities for clinical documentation, patient communication, and administrative automation.
