Accessing Microsoft’s HIPAA business associate agreement
The business associate agreement (BAA) is an important document for organizations handling protected health information (PHI) under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA). The BAA outlines the responsibilities of both Microsoft and your organization in safeguarding PHI. Accessing the standard Microsoft BAA is essential for compliance and audit purposes.
Important note
The BAA is one of many service trust documents available from Microsoft. Documents that can be found in the Microsoft Service Trust Portal are arranged by industry, geography, and more to help you find the documentation and agreements you need for specific contexts, information types, and regulations.
