Managed HIPAA Compliance for Small Practices

Continuous Monitoring, Documentation, and Audit Readiness — Simplified.


Every medical practice in the U.S., regardless of size, is held to the same HIPAA standards as major hospital networks. The difference? Small and mid-sized practices rarely have a dedicated compliance officer or full-time IT security staff.


MET Florida’s Managed HIPAA Compliance program bridges that gap — providing continuous monitoring, documentation management, and audit readiness support for clinics, healthcare providers, and business associates nationwide.


We don’t replace your IT team — we empower them. Our compliance program monitors and

documents your environment, while technical changes are handled by your in-house or managed IT provider (including MET Florida if you choose).


The Challenge: Compliance Without Capacity


HIPAA requires more than a checklist. It’s a living system — administrative, physical, and technical safeguards that evolve alongside your technology and workforce.

But most small practices struggle to maintain:

  • Updated policies and procedures

  • Annual Security Risk Assessments (SRAs)

  • Staff training records and awareness programs

  • Incident tracking and breach documentation

  • Vendor risk management and BAAs

The result? Compliance that’s reactive, not ready.


The MET Florida Approach: Monitor, Document, Advise

  • Annual Security Risk Assessments (SRA) - Complete documentation of findings, remediation recommendations, and trend tracking.
