What is the HIPAA Compliance Assessment Tool?

The HIPAA Compliance Assessment Tool is a quick and easy way to evaluate your organization’s current HIPAA readiness. With just 10 key questions, it helps identify compliance strengths and critical gaps in areas like data security, training, and breach response. Instantly receive a score and clear recommendations based on your answers. No data is stored, making it 100% private and secure to use. Download your results as a PDF for internal documentation or planning.

Is this tool legally binding or an official HIPAA certification?

No. This tool is for educational and informational purposes only. It does not replace a full legal audit or serve as official HIPAA certification. Use it as a first step or internal check-up before pursuing formal audits or certifications. For full HIPAA compliance, working with a qualified legal or compliance consultant is strongly recommended.

Will my answers or data be stored or tracked?

No. Your inputs are not saved or transmitted anywhere. All answers stay on your browser, and the assessment runs entirely client-side (locally on your device). This ensures total privacy and security for users — making it safe to use even for those handling sensitive healthcare information. We do not use cookies or collect user input from this tool.

Can I use this tool for my organization’s compliance documentation?

Yes. After completing the assessment, you can download a PDF summary of your results. This report can be shared internally for reference or as a starting point for future HIPAA improvements. While not a substitute for legal documentation, this downloadable report is helpful during staff meetings, internal reviews, and as an informal risk assessment checkpoint.

Who should use this tool?

This tool is ideal for practice managers, compliance officers, healthcare administrators, and business owners who handle patient data or provide services to covered entities under HIPAA. It’s especially useful for small practices or startups without dedicated compliance teams. Anyone responsible for safeguarding protected health information (PHI) will benefit from the insights this tool provides.
