COMPLIANCE SERVICES

PCIHIPAA

The DC Dental Society is proud to announce PCIHIPAA, a Rectangle Health company, as a preferred compliance partner to protect our member dentists from compliance risks that have escalated over the past two years.

Today, it’s more important than ever we help our members understand the risks surrounding HIPAA compliance and cybersecurity. In 2022 cyberattacks in the healthcare sector increased by 86% in just one year. Additionally, 61% of small businesses reported at least one cyberattack during the previous year. Not being proactive is no longer an option.

We believe PCIHIPAA’s OfficeSafe solution is easy to implement and balances time and costs effectively. They offer savings, convenience and peace of mind for HIPAA, OSHA and Payments Compliance.

To start, we strongly recommend each member take the HHS mandatory 2023 HIPAA Risk Assessment. We have partnered with PCIHIPAA to complete this with you at no cost (a $1,200 value!) You will receive:

  • A 26-page HIPAA Risk Report;
  • A 30-minute compliance review; and
  • A simple checklist that outlines next steps you can take.

It’s easy to get started! Click this link for Free Risk Assessment

After you submit the request for the free risk assessment, a PCIHIPAA Senior Compliance Advisor will contact you to follow-up.

To learn more about the services offered by PCIHIPAA, please refer to the FAQ.

If you have any additional questions, please call PCIHIPAA at (800) 588-0254 and let them know you are a DC Dental Society member.
