Assess the HIPAA Compliance Status of Your Business Associate


Are you a covered entity looking to assess the HIPAA compliance status of your business associate?  It can be dauntingly unclear to evaluate the degree that the

relationship with your business associate is HIPAA compliant, not HIPAA compliant, or what type of training must be necessarily provided. Use the Business Associate

HIPAA Compliance Status Questionnaire to structure and simplify your inquiry.
The Business Associate HIPAA Compliance Questionnaire from HIPAA Training Company free, downloadable PDF file that you can send directly to your business associate.

Your business associate can complete the form and return  it to you with any additional supporting documents. The completed documentation will provide you with direct

answers to questions about your business associate such as:

Is the HIPAA compliance officer certified as a Certified HIPAA Privacy Security Expert (CHPSE)?
Were ARRA’s HITECH updates to HIPAA included in the training?
Are all employees trained in basic HIPAA training?
Are Privacy & Security policies in place?

With the information you receive, evaluating the level of your business associate’s HIPAA compliance status will be easy. You can, then, use the collected information

to determine what additional steps you need to take as a covered entity to ensure your business associate’s compliance with HIPAA.
