Dr.Hipaa vs. hiring a consultant
A HIPAA consultant can assess you once and hand over recommendations — then the binder starts going stale. Dr.Hipaa is an always-on program that stays current long after a consultant’s engagement would end.
The short version
Consultants are valuable for complex, one-off remediation. But a point-in-time engagement leaves you with documents that age and no system to maintain them. Dr.Hipaa delivers the same building blocks as living software — updated, monitored, and far less expensive over time.
Always-on, not one-time

A fraction of the cost

Why practices choose software
Stays current automatically
Software keeps your program updated as your practice and the rules change — no re-engagement required.
Far lower lifetime cost
A flat subscription instead of repeat consulting projects every year.
Audit-ready year-round
Continuous monitoring and reminders, not a snapshot that ages the day it is delivered.
A fair word
When a consultant helps
For complex, one-off remediation — a major incident, an unusual setup, or a deep gap analysis — an experienced consultant can be worth it. Many practices use a consultant once and run Dr.Hipaa to maintain the program afterward.
