Myna Partners has extensive experience in managing HIPAA compliance projects across various industries. Our team has successfully supported numerous clients with HIPAA Privacy and Security Rules, providing solutions tailored to each organization’s unique needs. Their expertise spans gap assessments, risk analyses, compliance program enhancements, and more.
THE CHALLENGE
Myna Partners faced the challenge of ensuring compliance with HIPAA Privacy and Security Rules for two separate clients: a mid-sized U.S. city government and an international medical device manufacturer. The city government required comprehensive assessment and remediation, including the establishment of a HIPAA Compliance Office. The medical device manufacturer needed a thorough evaluation of their alignment with HIPAA regulations, specifically as a Business Associate, to address the complexities of their product and technology operations.
Our Approach
Myna Partners’ approach involved a multi-year engagement with the city government, focusing on continuous assessment and remediation of their compliance status, while developing a strong knowledge base within budget constraints. For the medical device manufacturer, the team conducted discovery activities to evaluate the handling of Protected Health Information (PHI), collaborated with subject matter experts, and designed a future state roadmap for compliance enhancement.
Program Outcomes
The ongoing relationship with the city government resulted in annual HIPAA training, quarterly assessments, and continuous support for the HIPAA Compliance Office, including guidance during breaches. For the medical device manufacturer, Myna Partners strengthened their HIPAA compliance program through expert guidance, project management support, and the implementation of a third-party risk management program to ensure continued adherence to HIPAA regulations.
