Explore application infrastructureHIPAA Compliant Hosting is a healthcare hosting provider based in Portland, Oregon. We publish our prices, we sign the Business Associate Agreement before any patient data moves to us, and we put every claim where you can check it. We also say the quiet part out loud: some websites do not need HIPAA hosting at all, and when yours is one of them, we will say so. The product is the hosting layer done right, plus a straight answer about everything else.
Not sure where you stand?
Two minutes, one straight answer: does your website need HIPAA hosting at all?
HIPAA compliant hosting is web hosting configured to satisfy the HIPAA Security Rule (45 CFR § 164.312) and backed by a signed Business Associate Agreement (BAA) that makes the host contractually accountable for protecting electronic protected health information.
The full picture is in our complete guide to HIPAA compliant hosting.
Published pricing as of September 2026. Two ways onto covered infrastructure: a fully managed SFTP server starting at $89/mo, or a fully managed website environment from $199/mo.
Starting at $89 per month. The lowest-cost way onto covered infrastructure, fully managed by us.
From the Starter tier: fully managed single-tenant environments in six sizes, Starter to Network, for every supported platform.
Across the market, comparable managed plans run roughly $120 to $600 per month. The full math is in our 2026 HIPAA hosting cost guide.
Under 45 CFR § 164.308(b), the answer depends on one thing: whether your website touches patient information.
We will tell you so. Where the line falls is mapped in who needs HIPAA compliant hosting.
Every aspect of our hosting infrastructure is designed to meet HIPAA requirements and keep your practice safe.
Enterprise-grade cloud infrastructure with redundant systems ensuring your data is always protected and available.
Purpose-built for WordPress with optimized server configurations, caching, and security hardening specific to CMS workloads.
Multi-region redundancy with automatic failover ensures your website stays online even during infrastructure disruptions.
Direct access to our team, no ticket queues or chatbots. We know your name, your setup, and your business needs.
We handle server updates, security patches, backups, and monitoring so you can focus on patient care, not server administration.
From small practices to large healthcare networks: scale your resources up to 96 vCPU and 384GB RAM as your business grows.
The most common call we get: a practice site built years ago on ordinary hosting, now taking intake forms and appointment requests. Under 45 CFR § 164.308(b), that is a violation before anything even goes wrong. We move the site to a hardened, BAA-covered environment, with migration handled by us and the BAA signed within 24 hours of signup.
Managed WordPress tiers from $199/mo (migration included) · managed SFTP from $89/mo
Healthtech teams come to us mid-sales-cycle, when a hospital's security questionnaire arrives. Our single-tenant AWS environments come pre-hardened: encryption with managed keys, a web application firewall, intrusion detection, six-year audit logging, and encrypted cross-region backups, with a responsibility matrix you can hand your buyer.
Each office set up at a different time, to a different standard, and nobody can say which sites have encryption or whose logs go where. We put the whole network on one platform under one BAA, with role-based access that respects site boundaries. Every new location inherits the same safeguards on day one.
The largest website-driven health data exposure in history came from advertising pixels, not hackers. Our one-time review audits every script, cookie, form, and third-party tool on your key pages and returns a findings report with risk levels and clear fixes. It pairs with our hosting but does not require it.
The practice manager is not a sysadmin, the developer moved on, and compliance work that nobody owns does not get done. Every managed plan includes our 24/7 HIPAA-trained team, monitoring, patching, and a named point of contact, not a ticket queue lottery.
The same hardened, BAA-covered tiers run every platform below. If your healthcare stack runs on it, there is a covered tier for it.
Every audience we host has its own compliance profile. Start with the guide written for yours.
Each safeguard, what it means for you, and the rule it serves.
| Included | What it means | Rule it serves |
|---|---|---|
| Signed BAA within 24 hours (managed tiers) | Legal coverage before any data moves | 45 CFR § 164.308(b) |
| CloudFront CDN and WAF on every tier | Delivery and attack filtering built in | System protection |
| Free managed migration | We move your site; elsewhere this typically runs $500 to $2,500 | No compliance gap |
| Single-tenant AWS environment | No other customers on your infrastructure | Isolation |
| Encryption at rest and in transit | AES-256 storage, TLS 1.2 or higher | § 164.312(a), (e) |
| Web application firewall and intrusion detection | Attacks filtered before they reach ePHI | System protection |
| Six-year audit logging | Reviewable records, retained to the documentation rule | § 164.312(b), § 164.316 |
| Tested encrypted backups | Restores we have actually run | § 164.308(a)(7) |
| 24/7 monitoring and support | A HIPAA-trained team watching the environment | Ongoing operations |
The control-by-control version with configuration detail is our CFR-mapped security checklist.
A $10 shared plan is not slightly less compliant; it is categorically different.
Most mainstream hosts will not sign a Business Associate Agreement for shared hosting at any price, and without that signature, placing patient data on their servers violates 45 CFR § 164.308(b) no matter how secure the stack is. The rows below show what else separates the two.
Basic web hosting
Healthcare-grade security
Fear of the move keeps teams on non-compliant hosting for years. The process is simpler than the fear: we sign the BAA first, your current site stays live while we migrate over encrypted channels, and coverage stays continuous the whole time, which is what keeps the switch compliant under 45 CFR § 164.308(b).
We map what your site collects, where PHI flows, and what the new environment needs.
Your new environment goes up under a signed BAA while your current site stays live.
We verify everything on the new environment, then cut over, usually with no visible downtime. You close the old account with written confirmation of disposal; BAA coverage overlaps, so there is no gap on cutover day.
We're not a generic hosting company that added a "HIPAA compliant" badge. Compliance is the foundation of everything we build.
Our infrastructure meets the highest standards for healthcare data protection.
Configured to the HIPAA Security Rule safeguards and documented in writing
Signed within 24 hours of signup on managed tiers
Encryption at rest and in transit, on by default
Continuous security monitoring and threat detection
No hosting company is HIPAA certified, because no such certification exists. What matters is whether a host passes these five tests and will put it in writing.
Does the Business Associate Agreement cover the hosting service you are actually buying, or only a narrow slice of it?
Is your environment isolated from other customers, or is patient data sitting on crowded shared infrastructure?
Is encryption in transit and at rest on by default, or is it an upsell you have to remember to configure?
Are access and activity logs retained the way HIPAA expects, so you can prove what happened if anyone ever asks?
Will the host document its safeguards in writing, or does the compliance story live only on a marketing page?
See how the major HIPAA hosting providers compare on all five tests.

Payload Cloud is paused for new projects since Figma bought Payload, and no Payload page offers a Business Associate Agreement. Self-hosted Payload 3 is a strong base for patient portals and intake forms, but audit logs and SSO are Enterprise features and field encryption is a hook you write. Verified September 14, 2026.
Ghost(Pro) offers no Business Associate Agreement and runs its servers in Amsterdam, so it cannot hold patient data. Self-hosted Ghost 6 can sit inside a compliant system, but only with a host that signs, a Mailgun BAA for newsletters, and no PHI in email bodies. Here is the full picture, verified September 14, 2026.
Symfony makes no HIPAA statement, but Upsun, the company behind Symfony Cloud, signs a BAA as a paid add-on in one US region. This guide covers that route and its price, what the Security component gives you for the HIPAA Security Rule, what you still add, and which Symfony versions to run. Verified September 14, 2026.
