HIPAA Compliance FAQ for Chiropractic Practices

What does HIPAA compliance mean for a chiropractic EHR?

HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) compliance for a chiropractic EHR means the software meets the Privacy Rule, Security Rule, and Breach Notification Rule requirements for protecting Protected Health Information (PHI). This includes technical safeguards (encryption, access controls, audit logs), administrative safeguards (policies, training, risk assessments), and physical safeguards (data center security). A HIPAA-compliant EHR also provides a Business Associate Agreement (BAA) to customers.

Is Pryme Practice HIPAA compliant?

Yes. Pryme Practice is fully HIPAA-compliant. All patient data is encrypted at rest using AES-256 and in transit using TLS 1.2+. The platform includes role-based access controls, comprehensive audit logging, automatic session timeouts, and Business Associate Agreement (BAA) availability for all customers. Pryme Practice is also SOC 2 Ready, with security controls aligned to the SOC 2 Type II framework.

Does Pryme Practice provide a Business Associate Agreement (BAA)?

Yes. A Business Associate Agreement (BAA) is available to all Pryme Practice customers. The BAA documents the responsibilities of both parties regarding the handling of Protected Health Information (PHI) and is required under HIPAA for any software vendor that processes, stores, or transmits PHI on behalf of a covered entity (your practice).

Is Pryme Practice compliant with Canadian privacy laws?

Yes. Pryme Practice supports compliance with PIPEDA (Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act) at the federal level, as well as provincial health information acts including PHIPA (Ontario), HIA (Alberta), PIPA (BC), and Quebec Law 25. Canadian customers receive the same security infrastructure as US customers, with data residency options available.

What encryption does Pryme Practice use for patient data?

Pryme Practice uses AES-256 encryption for all data at rest and TLS 1.2+ for all data in transit. Database backups are encrypted using the same standard. Encryption keys are managed using industry-standard key management practices with regular rotation.

How does Pryme Practice handle a HIPAA data breach?

In the event of a security incident, Pryme Practice follows the HIPAA Breach Notification Rule, which requires notification to affected individuals within 60 days of discovery, notification to the HHS Secretary, and (for breaches affecting 500+ individuals) notification to prominent media outlets. Our incident response team is available 24/7 and our BAA documents the specific notification procedures and timelines.

What access controls does Pryme Practice provide?

Pryme Practice includes role-based access controls (RBAC) that allow practice administrators to define exactly what each staff member can view, edit, and export. Roles can be customized for front desk, clinical staff, billing, and administrative users. All access events are logged in the audit trail with timestamps, user IDs, and IP addresses.
