Best SOC 2 Auditors for Healthcare & Health Tech
Health-tech vendors usually need SOC 2 and HIPAA at once — hospital procurement teams ask for both. The most efficient path is a single firm mapping HIPAA into the SOC 2 engagement. Ranked from 0 attestation-capable firms; health-tech industry focus on record ranks first.
What healthcare companies should optimize for
HIPAA + SOC 2 in one engagement
A combined report (SOC 2 with HIPAA mapping) satisfies most hospital and payer security reviews and costs far less than two separate projects.
PHI boundary scoping
De-identification, BAA chains, and PHI data flows are where health audits go wrong. Ask how the firm scopes PHI-touching systems.
Security Rule risk analysis
OCR expects a documented risk analysis. A healthcare-fluent auditor folds this into the engagement rather than bolting it on.
Procurement-ready output
Hospital vendor-security teams have specific expectations. An auditor who has passed those reviews before writes to that audience.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need both SOC 2 and HIPAA?
If you sell software that touches PHI, almost certainly yes: HIPAA is the legal requirement and SOC 2 is what procurement teams ask for. A combined engagement with HIPAA mapped into the SOC 2 report is the most efficient way to cover both.
Can any SOC 2 auditor handle HIPAA?
Any licensed CPA firm can issue the SOC 2, but HIPAA mapping quality varies. Prefer a firm with documented HIPAA assessment experience, and ask pointed questions about Security Rule risk analyses.
How does the healthcare ranking stay honest?
Firms are boosted only when a healthcare or health-tech industry focus is actually on record — never invented. Verification status, profile completeness, and verified reviews drive the rest of the ordering.
