Business Associate Agreement (BAA)
A standard, attorney-reviewed BAA included with every paid tier.
We make HIPAA compliance simple. Review and accept our standard BAA during onboarding—no negotiations, no delays, no sales calls.
Overview
AccessHealthData provides HIPAA-ready infrastructure for retrieving, normalizing, and storing patient medical data. As a Business Associate under HIPAA, we enter into a Business Associate Agreement (BAA) with any customer that processes PHI through our platform.
Our BAA is included in all paid tiers. You can review and sign it directly in the onboarding flow.

Once signed, your API keys can be promoted to PHI-enabled mode.
Why We Use a Standard BAA
To maintain consistency, reduce risk, and avoid slow contract cycles, we use a standardized, attorney-reviewed BAA. This ensures:
- Clear, predictable language
- No delays for legal negotiations
- Faster onboarding and implementation
- Uniform compliance obligations across all customers
This approach allows you to begin integrating quickly and safely.
