HIPAA Business Associate Agreement (BAA) — Editable Word Template

▶ See what's inside: preview every clause and Exhibit A structure, with a real excerpt — every fill-in is a marked teal placeholder, so you're editing, not drafting from scratch.

The missing companion to any HIPAA program: an editable Word Business Associate Agreement satisfying 45 C.F.R. §§164.314(a) and 164.504(e). Permitted uses with the prohibitions that matter (no sale, no marketing, no data combination), Security Rule safeguard commitments, breach reporting with fill-in day-count windows, subcontractor flow-down with Exhibit A, individual-rights support timelines, HHS access, and termination/return-or-destroy with certification.

What's inside: 8 sections — parties & purpose; permitted uses; safeguards; breach reporting (with fill-in windows); subcontractors; individual-rights support; HHS access, termination & return; miscellaneous — plus Exhibit A (subcontractor register) and dual signature blocks.

Teal placeholders mark every fill-in. Pairs with the HIPAA Compliance Suite and the Policy & SOP Packet. Template, not legal advice — counsel review before execution.
