HIPAA protections apply to accounts on this plan with a signed Business Associate Agreement (BAA) with Rev. The plan is available at the Unlimited level (formerly called Enterprise) and is set up with Rev's Sales team.

How does sharing work on the HIPAA plan?

Sharing is limited to people inside your organization. Public sharing links are turned off for transcripts and summaries.

In a file’s sharing settings, the General access menu offers Organization and Restricted, but not Public.

Share dialog for a recording on a HIPAA account. The General access menu under Who can have access lists Organization, Public and Restricted. Public is crossed out, with a note saying public sharing has been removed for HIPAA users.

HIPAA Compliance For Other Products

The HIPAA subscription plan covers the Rev web and mobile apps. Rev also offers HIPAA options for the Rev AI API and for Legal transcription. HIPAA protections are set up for each account, so having HIPAA on one account or product doesn't turn it on for another.

 

HIPAA for Rev.ai API

Rev AI API accounts can be HIPAA enabled. This requires a signed BAA and an updated Master Service Agreement (MSA). Only new accounts can place HIPAA-compliant orders so if you already have an account, you'll need to create a new one when working with our team to set up your HIPAA enabled account. Rev AI then enables HIPAA-compliant processing on that account and confirms when it's done. You can check that HIPAA is enabled on the Account page at rev.ai/account. 

HIPAA-enabled Rev AI accounts don't support human services, and some API fields and features aren't available. See the Rev AI HIPAA documentation for the full list. 

To get started, contact your account manager or Rev Sales team.

 

HIPAA for Legal transcription

Rev Legal transcription orders that require HIPAA are worked only by transcribers who meet Rev's HIPAA requirements. These transcribers complete HIPAA certification every year, pass a background check, and sign a BAA with Rev. To set up HIPAA for your Legal account, contact your account manager or speak with our sales team if you don't have an account yet.
