Healthcare compliance without the spreadsheet

Providers, health plans, health-tech vendors and their business associates all answer to the same question: can you show how you protect patient data? CMDash tracks HIPAA and HITRUST control by control and keeps the evidence current.

What you answer to

Regulatory and customer pressure

HIPAA Security Rule

Covered entities and business associates must run a documented risk analysis and keep administrative, physical and technical safeguards for electronic protected health information.

Business associate chains

Every vendor that touches patient data signs up to your requirements, and every health system or plan you serve expects the same from you.

HITRUST requests

Health systems and payers increasingly ask suppliers for HITRUST-aligned assurance as a condition of doing business.

What you defend against

Threats that target this industry

Ransomware that stops care

Attacks on providers disrupt scheduling, records and clinical systems, so recovery readiness is a patient-safety question as well as a compliance one.

Vendor and third-party compromise

A breach at a billing, imaging or hosting vendor lands on your notification list.

Credential theft

Phishing and reused passwords remain the quiet way in to clinical and e-mail systems.

Frameworks

The frameworks CMDash tracks for you

Crosswalked, so one piece of evidence counts twice:

  • HIPAA Security Rule and HITRUST CSF v11
  • HIPAA Security Rule and NIST Cybersecurity Framework (1.1, legacy)
  • HITRUST CSF v11 and ISO/IEC 27001:2022
What CMDash does for you

Capabilities that matter most here

Framework tracking and crosswalk

Work once against HIPAA and carry the status to the HITRUST and NIST CSF controls that overlap.

Controls tracked with owners, status and evidence. A status change carries to overlapping controls in other frameworks.

Evidence from your tools

Pull MFA, patching and endpoint evidence from the tools your IT team already runs.

Integration data collected on a schedule and turned into evidence by mapping rules you install or write, plus manual uploads with history.

Vendor register

Keep the business associate list, owners and questionnaires in one register.

Vendors with risk scoring, owners and continuous monitoring, plus SIG Lite and CSA CAIQ questionnaire templates (Enterprise).

Risk register and FAIR

A documented risk register with owners and remediation is the backbone of a risk analysis.

Likelihood, impact, owner and remediation per risk, with an annualized loss figure in dollars (Starter and up).

Trust Center and questionnaires

Answer payer and partner security reviews from one reviewed set of answers.

A public page for your organization where prospects submit security questionnaires. Nothing reaches the requester until someone on your team approves every answer.

External assessor seats

Give your assessor scoped, expiring, read-only access instead of shared logins.

Read-only access for your auditor, scoped to the frameworks you name and expiring on a date you set.
