Are My Website Forms HIPAA Compliant?

Let’s Do a Quick Check

Ask yourself:

When someone submits your online form, is the data encrypted?
If the answer is no, you're not HIPAA compliant — and that puts your organization at risk.

How Revel Forms Ensures HIPAA Compliance

1. Encryption & Submission Security

• Every submission via Revel Forms is:
  • Encrypted in transit
  • Delivered via a one-time unique URL
  • Password-protected
  • Stored on a HIPAA-compliant server

Unlike standard form tools, your data is not emailed or dumped into unsecured databases.

2. Access Controls

• Common Problem: WordPress, Wix, Squarespace, and most third-party form tools lack access control.
• Anyone with backend access — web agencies, admin assistants, even past contractors — can access form submissions.

Revel Forms limits access and secures PHI from unauthorized users.

3. Secure Hosting

• If you're unsure where your form is hosted, you're likely not compliant.
• Hosting must include:
  • Physical, technical, and administrative safeguards
  • HIPAA-compliant infrastructure

✅ Revel Forms uses Microsoft’s full HIPAA-compliant hosting stack.

4. PHI Protection Agreement (BAA)

• HIPAA requires a Business Associate Agreement (BAA) with any third party handling PHI.
• Most free/cheap form tools don’t offer one.

✅ Revel Forms provides a BAA — and we’ll check if your current provider does, just shoot us a message.

5. Training & Policies

• Anyone with access to submissions must be trained in HIPAA compliance.
• There should be formal policies around:
  • Data access
  • PHI handling
  • User privacy
