Is Freed HIPAA compliant?
AI scribe for individual clinicians and small practices. Freed signs BAAs with healthcare organizations and deletes visit recordings once the note is complete.
Signs a BAAYes
Freed signs a Business Associate Agreement. Freed's Terms of Use include a Business Associate Agreement (Schedule A), so it applies to every account when you sign up; team plans also list an organization-wide BAA.
A BAA alone does not make its use HIPAA compliant: set it up as described under What to configure, and cover it in your risk analysis.

BAA details
What you still have to configure
- Decide how you will get patient consent to record. Consent rules come from state recording laws and professional standards rather than HIPAA itself; Freed recommends asking and suggests a script. source
- Enable 30-day auto-deletion of notes if you don't need them kept in Freed. source
Limitations
- Individual plans range from $39/month (Starter, up to 40 notes) to $119/month (Premier, $104 billed annually). source
