Yes. Medical cannabis clinics evaluate and certify patients as covered healthcare providers, so HIPAA applies to how you store, transmit, and protect patient records. On top of HIPAA, most states add cannabis-program confidentiality and reporting rules that govern registry data and certification information. That means you need encryption, role-based access controls, audit logging, secure backups, and workforce security practices in place. We implement and document these safeguards, and we help you stay ready for both HIPAA audits and state cannabis-program scrutiny.
