HIPAA Website Compliance: Block Tracking Scripts

Healthcare websites expose PHI through tracking pixels, analytics scripts, and session recorders that lack BAAs. Feroot detects every unauthorized script, enforces HIPAA compliance in real time, and generates audit evidence before HHS OCR investigates.

Unauthorized Tracking Pixels Are Your Biggest HIPAA Risk

HHS OCR’s December 2022 guidance confirmed that tracking technologies — including Google Analytics, Meta Pixel, and session recorders — that access PHI on healthcare websites constitute HIPAA violations. The $12.25M Advocate Aurora Health settlement shows the risk is real: tools used without a valid BAA expose healthcare organizations to Tier 4 willful neglect penalties. Feroot inventories every third-party script on your healthcare website, identifies those accessing PHI without authorization, and generates compliance documentation for HHS audits.
