By clearly defining the roles and responsibilities, a BAA (Business Associate Agreement) helps mitigate risks associated with data breaches and unauthorized access to PHI. Having a BAA in place ensures that business associates implement appropriate safeguards to protect sensitive health information. After enabling HIPAA compliance features in your account, you can request a BAA signed by Jotform.
To receive a BAA for your HIPAA account
- Go to Data and select Sign BAA.

If the Silver plan is HIPAA compliant why does it need to be activated and do we have to follow the approval register steps each form we want to make sure is HIPPA compliant? How much does it cost to activate the added protection

Verve Healthcare has contracted with us to assist them with remaining HIPAA compliant. As part of that I need to obtain a copy of their BAA's. How can I obtain this for them?

Are the agreements compliant with requirements in every state? Our state has a shorter notification period than your example agreement, therefore the example agreement is not compliant with Minnesota requirements.
