01 / THE DETAIL

What is HITRUST CSF Readiness?

HITRUST CSF certification is increasingly required by healthcare organizations, payers, and business associates handling protected health information. Our HITRUST preparedness service takes a hands-on, collaborative approach to getting you certified fast and confidently. We use a Task Dashboard for daily collaboration with your team on prioritized, assigned HITRUST security domain tasks organized by criticality. You receive weekly and monthly progress reports plus daily Kanban dashboard visibility of completed work. Timelines: small companies need 1-3 months; larger organizations progress as fast as they can adopt changes. Our team has completed this at dozens of companies across banks, nuclear plants, software firms, startups, and law firms. We help you select the right assessment type: e1 (44 controls for low-risk), i1 (182 controls for moderate risk), or r2 (300+ controls for comprehensive coverage required by most healthcare enterprises). We leverage your existing compliance investments - SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA - to accelerate the process. Pricing is transparent and hour-based with no advance payment. Monthly invoices are generated only after work approval.

For small projects and ad-hoc work outside our pre-agreed packages or retainers, our standard hourly rate is $460.

HITRUST scales with the assessment type you need (e1, i1, or r2), priced on control count relative to our SOC 2 baseline. The assessment reviews every in-scope control whatever certifications you hold. What prior SOC 2, ISO 27001, or HIPAA work reduces is the implementation phase, and only by the real effort those controls represent, not their count, since a small share of controls can be most of the work. Fixed-price proposal within 24 hours, and you review progress before invoicing.

06 / FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between HITRUST e1, i1, and r2?

e1 is a basic assessment with 44 controls for low-risk organizations. i1 is an intermediate assessment with 182 controls for moderate risk. r2 is the comprehensive assessment with 300+ controls required by most healthcare enterprises and large business associates.

How long does HITRUST certification take?

Small companies typically achieve readiness in 1-3 months. Larger organizations progress as fast as they can adopt changes. Organizations with existing SOC 2 or ISO 27001 can significantly accelerate the implementation, though the time saved depends on the effort those shared controls represent, not their count.

How does HITRUST relate to HIPAA?

HITRUST CSF incorporates and maps to HIPAA requirements. Achieving HITRUST certification demonstrates HIPAA compliance and is widely accepted by healthcare organizations as proof of adequate security controls.

How does pricing work?

Transparent, hour-based pricing with no advance payment required. Monthly invoices are generated only after work approval. This means you only pay for actual progress delivered.

Can existing compliance certifications help?

Yes. We reuse your existing SOC 2, ISO 27001, or HIPAA work to accelerate HITRUST readiness. The assessment still reviews every HITRUST control, but the implementation phase shrinks in proportion to the effort you have already spent - and effort, not control count, is what we quote on, since a small share of controls can be most of the work.
