Understanding Your Results
A Directional Snapshot, Not a Certification
Area
What the tool evaluates
Findings are prioritized
Operational Priority findings are the gaps most likely to matter in an actual audit or breach investigation — address these first.
This is not a legal determination
No online tool can certify HIPAA compliance. Use these results to scope a conversation with counsel or a formal risk analysis, not as a compliance attestation.

FAQ
Common Questions
Does this assessment replace a formal HIPAA security risk analysis?
No. HIPAA requires a formal, documented security risk analysis. This tool provides a directional readiness snapshot to help you understand where gaps likely exist before commissioning a formal risk analysis.
Who should complete this assessment?
Anyone responsible for HIPAA compliance oversight — a practice administrator, compliance officer, or IT leader at a covered entity or business associate handling protected health information.
Is anything I enter here saved, transmitted, or considered PHI?
No. You are answering questions about your organization's safeguards, not entering patient data. Responses are processed in your browser to generate the results shown on this page and are not stored or transmitted unless you separately choose to request an emailed copy.
What should I do after I see my results?
Treat the findings as a prioritized starting list, not a finished compliance program. Operational-priority findings are the gaps most likely to matter in an actual audit or breach investigation — those are the right place to start before scheduling a formal risk analysis.
