What we handle

Where Written Policy Meets Actual Configuration

Risk Assessments

Current risk assessments covering both physical and electronic PHI access, kept current as staff, vendors, and technology change — not a static binder from years ago.

Access Controls & Audit Logs

Role-based access configured to match your actual staff roster, with audit logging turned on and reviewed periodically rather than only after an incident.

MIPS Performance Tracking

Quality, cost, improvement activities, and promoting-interoperability measures tracked throughout the year, not just checked at the reporting deadline.

Regulatory compliance and data security infrastructure

Why Compliance Needs an eCW-Specific Lens

A meaningful share of HIPAA Security Rule and MIPS “promoting interoperability” requirements come down to how eClinicalWorks itself is set up — role-based access controls, audit logging, and patient portal features configured to actually count toward your performance category instead of sitting unused.

We regularly see practices with strong written policies undermined by an eCW configuration that doesn't actually enforce them. This page is general information, not legal advice — consult qualified legal or compliance counsel for guidance specific to your practice, or review the source regulations directly via HHS's HIPAA Security Rule guidance and CMS's Quality Payment Program resource center for MACRA/MIPS.

Common Questions

Do you provide legal advice?

No. We help align your eClinicalWorks configuration and operational processes with HIPAA, HITECH, and MACRA requirements. For legal interpretation specific to your practice, consult qualified legal or compliance counsel.

What does a compliance review actually look at?

Access controls and audit logging inside eCW, your current risk assessment, Business Associate Agreement coverage for vendors touching PHI, and your MIPS performance category tracking.

How often should a risk assessment be updated?

At minimum annually, and any time staff, vendors, or major technology changes — a static assessment stops matching reality within a year.

Do you help with MIPS reporting specifically?

Yes — we help configure and track the quality, cost, improvement activities, and promoting-interoperability measures inside eCW so performance is visible throughout the year, not just discovered at the deadline.
