Definition
A Business Associate Agreement (BAA) is a contract required under HIPAA between a covered entity and a vendor that handles protected health information, defining how that data is safeguarded.
Why it matters
A signed BAA is often a procurement requirement before a healthcare client will sign, making it a deal-closer or deal-breaker.
