Comprehensive HIPAA Compliance
DGP’s suite follows the life cycle of a security program under the HIPAA and HITECH requirements. This begins with the online portal, backed by experts, enabling you to measure, track, manage and monitor your compliance status. The following services help practices meet the stringent requirements of HIPAA and HITECH.
 |
Comprehensive Online Risk Analysis: One of the first safeguards HIPAA requires covered entities and practices to assess and understand risks and vulnerabilities to your practice systems and the patient information stored on them. The DGP portal allows you to systematically evaluate the risks to your practice and determine the “treatment plan” and controls your need to apply to those risks. This analysis encompasses both security and privacy requirements, as stipulated by the HIPAA regulation. |
 |
HIPAA Forms and Policies: Access a library of examples of policies and procedures and supporting forms to be adapted by the practice to their specific needs in addressing the HIPAA/HITECH privacy, security and breach notification requirements. The forms include Business Associates Agreements (BAA) and related policies and procedures required to manage vendor and third party relationships that involve the disclosure of patient information. |
 |
Self-Paced On-Demand Privacy and Security Awareness Training: Through the DGP portal you will have access to training tailored specifically for you, the doctor and your team. All the training is graded and logged, which is a standard of good practice required by law. |
 |
24/7 Monitoring: DGP transparently collects and analyzes network traffic looking for potential internal and external hostile activity. Remediation steps will immediately be provided to address identified threats. In addition, periodic vulnerability scanning will be performed to identify potential vulnerabilities within your office and network. Reporting will be done through a dashboard and reports available to providers and their IT professionals through the DGP customer portal. |
Annual DGP Certificate of Compliance
Awarded to practices that complete the steps provided in the tools to create a HIPAA compliance program and updated annually as you keep your compliance program current.
