Mental health records require heightened protection under HIPAA. Psychotherapy notes, telehealth expansion, and small practice operations create compliance gaps that OCR specifically targets.
Behavioral health records are among the most sensitive categories of PHI. Practices must satisfy the full Privacy Rule (Right of Access, Notice of Privacy Practices, Minimum Necessary, Uses & Disclosures for TPO) — the foundation for how psychotherapy notes and other records are governed.
Telehealth platforms, EHRs, scheduling tools, and cloud storage all hold ePHI and fall under the Security Rule. Every electronic system that handles PHI must be documented, access-controlled, and covered by a Business Associate Agreement.
Mental health breaches carry reputational and emotional impact that exceeds other healthcare areas. Patients are more likely to switch providers following a breach.
Independent therapists and small practices often lack dedicated IT staff, making security policy documentation and technical remediation more difficult.
76% of HIPAA enforcement actions in 2025 cited Security Risk Assessment failures. Behavioral health has been a target area in recent enforcement initiatives.
Telehealth platforms, billing services, EHR vendors, and cloud storage providers handling PHI all require signed Business Associate Agreements, often not in place.

A Security Risk Assessment is a comprehensive evaluation of your practice's compliance with the HIPAA Security Rule, scored against all 18 standards and 44 implementation specifications defined by NIST SP 800-66. It identifies gaps in your administrative, physical, and technical safeguards, evaluates risk, and provides a prioritized remediation roadmap. Every covered entity, including behavioral health practices, is legally required to have a current SRA on file.
No. Structured Compliance specializes exclusively in HIPAA and HITECH compliance documentation. We do not assess or provide documentation for 42 CFR Part 2 (substance use disorder privacy), OSHA, or state-specific behavioral health regulations. If your practice serves substance use clients, you will need to work with 42 CFR Part 2 specialists alongside your HIPAA documentation.
Behavioral health practices face unique HIPAA challenges. Psychotherapy notes receive heightened protection under the Privacy Rule and require specific patient authorization for most disclosures. Many behavioral health providers are solo practitioners or small groups with limited IT resources. And the sensitive nature of mental health records makes the consequences of non-compliance particularly serious. Our assessment covers all 44 Security Rule specifications and the Privacy Rule supplement, which addresses these behavioral health considerations within the standard HIPAA framework.
Our assessment is a documentation-focused compliance evaluation against the 18 HIPAA Security Rule standards and 44 implementation specifications. Those specifications apply to all electronic systems used to create, receive, maintain, or transmit ePHI, which includes any telehealth platform you use. We do not separately evaluate, test, or certify your telehealth platform itself, and we do not perform a dedicated telehealth security review. Confirming that your telehealth vendor is HIPAA-ready and has signed a Business Associate Agreement is your responsibility. If gaps are identified during the assessment, we recommend working with your IT provider to address them.
Psychotherapy notes receive heightened protection under HIPAA's Privacy Rule (45 CFR § 164.508(a)(2)) and generally require specific patient authorization for uses and disclosures. Our assessment does not include a dedicated psychotherapy notes review. The Privacy Rule supplement for covered entities covers the standard Privacy Rule requirements (Right of Access, Notice of Privacy Practices, Right to Amend, Accounting of Disclosures, Minimum Necessary, and Uses & Disclosures for TPO), and the Security Rule portion covers the technical and administrative safeguards that apply to all ePHI, including any psychotherapy notes you maintain electronically. Documenting how your practice segregates and authorizes access to psychotherapy notes is your responsibility.
No. Our assessment is a documentation-focused compliance evaluation conducted through a structured interview, not a technical test of your network. We do not perform penetration testing, vulnerability scanning, network scans, or any hands-on technical analysis of your systems. If the assessment identifies technical gaps, we recommend working with your IT provider or MSP to address them.
