HIPAA Compliance
How Scribeable maintains HIPAA compliance and protects patient data.
Our Commitment
Scribeable is built for HIPAA-covered practices. A Business Associate Agreement is included on every plan, including the trial, and we maintain administrative, physical, and technical safeguards to protect Protected Health Information (PHI). HIPAA compliance is shared: your practice's own safeguards count too.
Our HIPAA Security Officer oversees all compliance activities and can be reached at [email protected].
Technical Safeguards
- Encryption: AES-256-GCM envelope encryption with ECDH P-256 key exchange across 5 layers (API requests, responses, WebSocket, audio, field-level at rest). Enforcement mode active on covered request, response, and WebSocket paths — plaintext PHI is rejected there. Since October 2026, an app that does not encrypt live audio is refused. Two features still send data protected by TLS only, which Cloudflare can read in transit: calculator inputs and practice roster CSV uploads. See our security documentation for details.
- Access Controls: Role-based, with MFA available
- Audit Logging: PHI access through the app is logged
- Data Backup: Encrypted backups with geo-redundancy
