HIPAA Checklist

With all of the compliance associated with HIPAA and the new rules coming down, not being in compliance is very risky.

One of our businesses was a little behind on the formalities associated with HIPAA compliance and needed to create a scorecard to assess where they are and where they need to be.  Not wanting to re-invent the wheel, I reached out to some of my colleagues, of which, an acquaintance at Grant Thornton pointed me to HIPAACOW.

While they DO have a mascot of a cow, the actual term is an acronym that stands for the Collaborative Of Wisconsin.  While the logo is whimsical, the group is not to be dismissed.  There is a wealth of information, checklists, templates, etc.
