Virtual HIPAA Officer

A named Privacy and Security Officer on retainer — because §164.308(a)(2) requires the role, and most organisations under 200 people cannot justify the.

A named Privacy and Security Officer on retainer — because §164.308(a)(2) requires the role, and most organisations under 200 people cannot justify the headcount.

Who this is for

Organisations that already know roughly where they stand and need the work done — not another vendor explaining what HIPAA is. Covered entities and business associates both, from 10-person health tech startups to multi-site provider groups.

Scope drivers that move the price: number of legal entities, number of clinical or production systems in scope, whether ePHI crosses a cloud boundary, and how much prior documentation exists.

Why teams pick us over a generalist consultancy

A generalist gives you a report. We give you a report and the system that keeps it true twelve months later. The deliverable is not a PDF you file — it is a populated risk register, a live evidence library, and a workforce that has acknowledged the current version of every policy.

What happens after you fill the form

  1. You get the deliverable immediately. No “a rep will contact you to unlock your download.”
  2. We read your answers before we call. The scoping call starts with what you told us, not a discovery script.
  3. You get a fixed-scope, fixed-price proposal in 2 business days — or a straight “you don’t need us yet,” which we say more often than you’d expect.

On the word “certified.” There is no government HIPAA certification. Any vendor selling you a “HIPAA Certificate” is selling a PDF they printed themselves. What regulators, customers, and insurers actually accept is a documented risk analysis, implemented safeguards, and evidence that both are maintained. That is what SuperHIPAA produces.

Questions

How is this priced?

Fixed scope, fixed fee, starting at $2,500/mo. We publish the starting number because vendors who hide it are usually charging based on how desperate you sound.

How long does it take?

Retainer for a typical engagement. Multi-entity or multi-cloud environments take longer and we say so in the proposal, not after you sign.

Do we have to buy the platform too?

No. Services stand alone. Most clients bundle because the deliverables land directly in the platform and stay maintainable, but it is not a condition.

Will this make us HIPAA certified?

No such thing exists. This produces the risk analysis, documented safeguards, and evidence that regulators and enterprise customers actually accept.

Does HIPAA actually require a named compliance officer?

Yes. Covered entities must designate a Privacy Official under §164.530, and everyone subject to the Security Rule must name a Security Official under §164.308(a)(2). It can be the same person, and the role can be fulfilled through a contracted service like this one.

Who is actually named on our documents?

A named consultant from our team — not a shared inbox or a rotating bench. They attend your meetings, sign off on decisions, and are the person your auditors and enterprise customers talk to.

What does a typical month look like?

Working the recurring items on your compliance calendar, vendor and BAA reviews, triaging any incidents or patient-rights requests, and a standing call with your leadership. Everything they do is logged in your workspace, not in their head.

Can we bring the role in-house later?

Yes, and you should plan to as you grow. Because the register, policies, and evidence all live in your workspace, handover is a role change — not a knowledge-transfer project.
