HIPAA Security Risk Assessment Software, Built Around a Defensible Security Risk Analysis
HIPAA security risk assessment software is the tool a healthcare organization uses to complete, document, and maintain the Security Risk Analysis (SRA) that HIPAA requires — the same analysis OCR asks for first in an investigation. Medcurity is HIPAA security risk assessment software purpose-built for healthcare: a guided SRA paired with expert human review, so a practice, health center, or hospital produces a defensible analysis, documents its administrative, physical, and technical safeguards, and works a tracked remediation plan in one place. Software plus a real review, not a spreadsheet you finish alone. Plans start at $499 per year and scale with organization size.
Why healthcare teams choose it
- Healthcare-native, not a general platform bent to fit. Built for the HIPAA Security Risk Analysis specifically — the questions, the evidence, and the safeguards a healthcare organization is actually accountable for — rather than a horizontal compliance tool retrofitted from another framework.
- A guided SRA with expert review. You complete the analysis in the software and a Medcurity advisor reviews the work. A person checks it, so the output stands up — not just a form that reports itself complete.
- Onsite physical-safeguard assessment (§164.310). Coverage extends to physical safeguards under 45 CFR §164.310, including onsite evaluation, so the physical layer is assessed on the ground, not assumed away.
- Multi-site SRA under one engagement. Organizations that run several delivery locations complete a multi-site SRA from a single dashboard, with every site represented individually rather than averaged into one snapshot.
- Mapped to recognized standards. The analysis maps to NIST guidance, including NIST SP 800-66, so the SRA reads the way auditors, boards, and partners expect it to.
- Built for lean IT. Right-sized for small and mid-size teams that carry a full HIPAA obligation without a large security staff — guided enough to finish, deep enough to defend.
- Defensible documentation. The result is the artifact an investigator asks for: a current, enterprise-wide analysis tied to a remediation plan you can show you are working.

Frequently asked questions
Is HIPAA security risk assessment software required?
HIPAA requires a Security Risk Analysis — a documented, organization-wide analysis of risks to electronic protected health information (45 CFR §164.308(a)(1)(ii)(A)). Software is how most organizations complete and maintain it defensibly; it is not itself mandated, the analysis it produces is.
What is the difference between a security risk assessment and a Security Risk Analysis?
In practice, none — “risk assessment” is the common search phrase and “Security Risk Analysis (SRA)” is the term in the HIPAA regulation. They name the same required activity.
How often do I need to update it?
OCR expects the analysis to be current — reviewed and updated when your systems, locations, or risks change, and on a regular cadence. A one-time analysis that is years stale is treated as no current analysis at all.
Does the 2026 HIPAA Security Rule change this?
The 2026 update is a proposed rule, not final law. It would tighten and make explicit expectations — an annual documented analysis, asset and data-flow inventories, encryption and multi-factor authentication — that largely reflect how OCR already reads the current rule. Get current on today’s requirement and the proposal holds few surprises.
How much does it cost?
Plans start at $499 per year and scale with organization size.
