Business Associates (BA) Disaster Recovery and Business Continuity Plan

Business Associate as an individual or corporate “person” that performs on behalf of the covered entity any function or activity involving the use or disclosure of protected health information (PHI) and is not a member of the covered entity’s workforce. The definition of “function or activity” is all-encompassing: legal, actuarial, accounting, consulting, data processing, management, administrative, accreditation, financial services, and anything else for which a covered entity might contract out are included if access to PHI is involved. It is a better business practice for business associates to create a contingency plan. Clients are assured that their information is safe and recoverable from vendors who have disaster recovery plans.

This is a complete templates suite required by any Business Associates of the covered entity to create a complete Business Impact Analysis (BIA), Risk Assessment, Disaster Recovery Plan (DRP), and Business Continuity Plan (BCP). Any organization, large or small, can use this template and adapt to its environment.

Our templates are designed to meet HIPAA & JCAHO requirements of the healthcare industry and will also help with business continuity requirements of the Sarbanes Oxley Act (SOX), FISMA, ISO 17799, and FDA. This template suite contains guidelines, matrix, templates, forms, worksheets, policies, procedures, methodologies, tools, recovery plan, information on free resources, and standards in the following sections:
