Physical Therapy Security FAQ

We deploy standardized security policies and endpoint protection across all locations through centralized management. Each clinic gets its own network segmentation, but monitoring and alerting is unified so your compliance team has visibility into every location from a single dashboard. Adding new locations is seamless.

Tablets used for exercise demonstration, documentation, or patient check-in all access ePHI and must be secured. We implement mobile device management (MDM) with encryption, remote wipe capability, automatic screen lock, and app restrictions. Lost or stolen devices can be wiped remotely to prevent data exposure.

If the app stores or transmits patient health information (which most HEP platforms do — they link exercises to patient diagnoses and treatment plans), then yes. Your HEP vendor needs a signed BAA, the platform must use encryption, and patient data must be handled according to HIPAA requirements. We verify compliance for all your clinical software vendors.

From requirement to defensible practice

Turn HIPAA requirements into safeguards that fit patient care

A useful compliance path makes the obligation clear, identifies the evidence to retain, and connects written policy to the safeguards used every day.

  • Know what applies
  • Document the evidence
  • Make the safeguard operational

A defensible path

  1. 01

    Confirm the requirement

    Separate what is required from recommendations and vendor language.

  2. 02

    Map it to your environment

    Connect the rule to people, devices, data, vendors, and current procedures.

  3. 03

    Close and document the gaps

    Prioritize changes and keep evidence that the process is being followed.
