Business Associates in Massachusetts Must Be HIPAA Compliant

Compliance is about to get painfully expensive for all involved...Regardless, I can already feel the cost of healthcare tumbling down! Can't you? :?
The noose is tightening on business associate compliance. The states are stepping in while HHS is dilly dallying. If you are a covered entity in Massachusetts you must get "satisfactory assurances" that your business associates are compliant. If you are a business associate be prepared to provide proof of compliance.
