I love DocHub. Great for signatures, particularly when I need many opeople from one office to sign the same document. I also use it for outbound faxing, editing PDFs, combining PDFs, and filling out forms. It's a jack of all traits and worth every single penny.

DocHub has enabled me to go completely digital in my practice.

Frequently asked questions

What is HIPAA compliance?

The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) is a federal law with a series of national standards established by the U.S. Congress with an aim to regulate the use and disclosure of protected health information (PHI).

What is PHI?

Protected health information (PHI) is personal healthcare information that can be used to identify a patient. PHI includes names, addresses, phone numbers, Social Security numbers, medical records, financial information, facial photos, and more.

Who needs to comply with HIPAA?

Under HIPAA, all covered entities, including hospitals, medical services providers, research facilities, and insurance companies, as well as business associates — organizations or individuals that perform work or activities on behalf of a covered entity — are responsible for the security of protected healthcare information (PHI).

What is a Business Associate Agreement (BAA)?

The Business Associate Agreement (BAA) is a key component of HIPAA compliance that outlines each party's responsibilities to maintain the security of ePHI (electronic protected health information). A Business Associate Agreement is signed between a healthcare organization or any HIPAA-compliant entity and a business associate who will transmit or store the Protected Health Information (PHI).
