HIPAA Help

As the nationwide leader in HIPAA training, consulting, and compliance, HIPAA Group is pleased to help solve your HIPAA problems.

If you are a patient or consumer with a HIPAA complaint, a Covered Entity, or an employer with a HIPAA problem, we can put you on the right track to get help. Please refer to the section below that best matches your situation.


 
Patients or Consumers with a HIPAA Complaint or Problem

The federal government has created a way to receive HIPAA complaints quickly and easily over the Internet. A special division of the US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), called the OCR (Office for Civil Rights) is the right place to take your HIPAA complaint. Valid complaints will be investigated and acted upon by the OCR. As a small, for-profit corporation, HIPAA Group is not equipped to handle individual HIPAA complaints.
