Frequently Asked Questions
Does my health app need to be HIPAA compliant?+
If your app is developed for or on behalf of a covered entity (healthcare provider, health plan, or healthcare clearinghouse) and handles PHI, it must be HIPAA compliant. Consumer wellness apps that do not interact with covered entities may not fall under HIPAA but should still follow privacy best practices. The FTC has enforcement authority over non-HIPAA health apps.
What HIPAA safeguards do health apps need?+
Health apps handling PHI need technical safeguards (encryption at rest and in transit, access controls, audit logging), administrative safeguards (security policies, workforce training, risk assessments), and physical safeguards (device security, facility access controls). Apps must also have a business associate agreement with any third-party service providers that access PHI.
Can users consent to non-HIPAA-compliant data handling in an app?+
No. HIPAA compliance is not optional for covered entities and their business associates, regardless of user consent. Users cannot waive their HIPAA rights through an app disclaimer or terms of service. However, users can authorize specific disclosures of their PHI for purposes not otherwise permitted by HIPAA, such as sharing health data with a non-covered third party.
