What is the Hipaa MCP server?

Hipaa MCP server is a locally run integration for AI assistants that speak the Model Context Protocol. HIPAA healthcare compliance assessment tools for AI agents. Capabilities: assess safeguards,...

What you get

HIPAA healthcare compliance MCP — Administrative, Physical, Technical safeguards assessment, PHI handling, BAA templates, breach notification readiness.

Setting it up

Installation goes through your MCP client rather than a global install: point it at @smithery/cli on npm and it is fetched when the client starts. The copy-paste blocks for Claude Desktop, Claude Code and Cursor are further down this page.

What the assistant can call

Once Hipaa is connected, these are the calls the assistant has available:

  • assess_safeguards — Assess HIPAA administrative, physical, and technical safeguards
  • check_phi_handling — Check PHI handling procedures for compliance
  • generate_baa — Generate a Business Associate Agreement
  • breach_notification — Generate breach notification assessment and timeline
  • minimum_necessary — Evaluate minimum necessary policy compliance
  • hipaa_risk_assessment — Full HIPAA security risk assessment
  • training_gap — Identify workforce training gaps

Before you rely on it

  • It runs with your machine's permissions. That is convenient and also the reason to think about what you point it at before you approve a tool call.
  • MCP clients confirm each tool call by default. Leave that on until you have watched what the hipaa mcp server does with a few real requests.

Choosing this one

This sits in the developer tooling group, where several servers overlap in what they claim to do but differ sharply once you actually set them up. Hipaa's toolset — assess_safeguards, check_phi_handling, generate_baa and 4 more — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by CSOAI-ORG; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.

This entry was verified against Hipaa's own documentation before publication; SyncDev keeps the directory reviewed rather than auto-generated.

Frequently asked questions

It connects Hipaa to MCP-compatible AI assistants such as Claude and Cursor, exposing 7 tools (assess_safeguards, check_phi_handling, generate_baa, and more) that the assistant can call on your behalf. Instead of copying data back and forth by hand, the assistant works with Hipaa directly.
