Practices in Montana
Many Montana practices serve patients spread across long distances, so telehealth, patient portals and remote access carry more of the daily load. Small rural clinics often share one part-time IT contact, and internet links between sites can be limited, which shapes how we review backups and remote access.
How it works from a distance
A scoping call, remote interviews and scans, a plain-English report, then we work with your IT provider until fixes are verified.
Montana law to know
Montana's data breach notification law (MCA Title 30, Chapter 14, Part 17) applies alongside HIPAA and can require a copy of the notice to the state attorney general's Office of Consumer Protection.
