Meeting HIPAA Requirements in Modern Digital Healthcare

Telehealth and digital pharmacy platforms must comply with HHS guidance on tracking technologies while delivering seamless digital experiences. This requires protecting PHI from unauthorized disclosure through analytics tools, marketing trackers, and third-party integrations that power modern healthcare websites.

Client-Side PHI Protection Requirements

HHS mandates protection of PHI during actual user sessions on healthcare websites. This includes controlling third-party trackers, analytics tools, and marketing technologies that may access patient data through forms, URLs, or browser storage. Each technology must be evaluated for PHI access and properly managed.

Protected Health Information Discovery

Healthcare organizations must identify and classify PHI across web forms, URLs, and on-page content. This requires continuous monitoring of data flows to prevent unauthorized access or transmission of protected information during user sessions.

Third-Party Risk Management

Digital healthcare platforms must inventory and manage all third parties that may receive PHI through website tracking. This includes obtaining Business Associate Agreements, monitoring data access, and ensuring vendors maintain HIPAA compliance. Continuous monitoring is required as websites evolve.

Multi-State Privacy Compliance

Beyond HIPAA, telehealth and pharmacy websites must comply with state privacy laws, CCPA, anti-wiretapping statutes, and emerging regulations. Organizations need real-time visibility into data collection practices across jurisdictions to maintain compliance.
