Who Needs to Perform a HIPAA SRA?

  1. Covered Entities: Healthcare providers (e.g., hospitals, clinics, doctors, pharmacies), Health plans (e.g., insurance companies, HMOs), and Healthcare clearinghouses.
  2. Business Associates: Vendors, contractors, and third parties handling ePHI on behalf of Covered Entities.
  3. Subcontractors: Organizations working with Business Associates that have access to ePHI.

A HIPAA SRA (Security Risk Assessment) is a systematic process required under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA). The Security Risk Assessment requirement is outlined in §164.308(a)(1)(ii)(A) of the Security Rule.

Performing regular SRAs is critical not only for HIPAA compliance but also for protecting against breaches and penalties. The 2021 HITECH updates and Section 13412 of Public Law 116-321 create a stronger incentive for HIPAA-regulated entities to go beyond the baseline SRA requirements by adopting and demonstrating recognized security practices.

Blackwell Security’s HIPAA SRA helps you evaluate the potential risks and vulnerabilities to electronic protected health information (ePHI) that your organization creates, receives, maintains, or transmits – tailored to your specific needs. Here is what to expect:
