How to Choose HIPAA Compliance Software
The HIPAA Journal published a guide aimed at small healthcare organizations on selecting HIPAA compliance software, noting that in practices under 100 employees, compliance duties typically fall to administrators or practice managers without specialized training.
Why this matters: Most people assume healthcare privacy is managed by experts. At small practices, it is often one overworked administrator doing their best with limited background. That gap is real, and it is where patient data gets exposed. Software can close some of it, but tools are only as good as the accountability structures around them. If a breach happens, 'we used compliance software' is not a defense. Someone still has to own the decisions, and patients still pay the price when things go wrong.
