HIPAA Risk Assessment Infographic

I’ll admit that I’m a sucker for infographics. I usually post the various EHR infographics I find on EMR Thoughts, but this one seemed more appropriate to post on EMR and HIPAA. You can find all of the various EHR and Health IT infographics I’ve posted on this Healthcare IT Infographic pinterest board as well.

Thanks to Coalfire for putting together this HIPAA Security Risk Analysis Myths infographic.

Update: David Harlow offered this interesting note that might be helpful to some “The infographic suggests that only covered entities need to undergo a security risk assessment. In the EHR context that makes sense, since them with EHRs are CEs, but of course Business Associates need to do this too.”

Unearthing some of the myths and actions points for different organizations to take in order to ensure compliance was very helpful. It’s also very pretty!
