Run Your Private Practice with AI (Artificial Intelligence)

96. What Therapists Get Wrong About HIPAA Compliance AI Tools


Listen Later

Most therapists using AI in their practice think they've got HIPAA compliance covered. HIPAA compliance AI tools are more complicated than most of us realize, and in 2026, the landscape has shifted enough that the old rules no longer cover what we're actually doing.

In this episode of Run Your Private Practice with AI, I'm walking through the blind spots I keep seeing, from AI agents that can see your screen to browser extensions sitting in the same profile as your EHR. These are the exact questions that keep coming up in my mastermind calls, and they're the reason I'm bringing in HIPAA compliance consultant Samantha Schalk for a free 90-minute webinar on May 5th so you can get real answers to the scenarios you're actually dealing with.

AI Tips You Don’t Want to Miss:

  • Why having a BAA doesn't automatically cover every tool or feature that company offers.
  • What actually counts as PHI and why removing a client's name isn't enough.
  • How browser sidebar assistants create HIPAA exposure even when the base platform is compliant.
  • Why AI agents on your computer may have access to more than you realize.
  • How browser extensions can quietly access clinical content in your profile.
