Can this skill fix HIPAA violations automatically?

While the skill identifies violations and provides remediation suggestions via its reporting, developers should manually review and apply changes to ensure all clinical and technical requirements are met.

Does this skill require access to actual patient data?

No. The skill analyzes the code and infrastructure structure for compliance patterns; it does not require or process actual Protected Health Information (PHI) to perform its scans.

Is this skill a substitute for a legal HIPAA audit?

No, this is a technical tool designed to assist developers in identifying common risks and best practices. A formal legal and security audit by certified professionals is still recommended for full certification.

What types of files can the HIPAA checker scan?

It can scan source code across various languages, infrastructure configurations like AWS CloudFormation or Terraform, and technical project documentation.
