Compliancy Group HIPAA Cost in 2026

Compliancy Group is one of the few vendors in this market that publishes a rate card at all. On its own pricing page (checked July 2026) it publishes four plans, from $99 per month billed annually, and a separate per-employee fee from $8 per employee per month. Both lines are worded as starting prices, and both move your bill. The platform's distinguishing feature is the Compliance Coach: a named human compliance specialist assigned to each customer. This page reports the published dimensions, sets out the coverage matrix of what the platform evidences versus what remains your work, and is clear about the lines nobody publishes.

The published rate card

Compliancy Group publishes its plans on its pricing page, with a toggle for monthly or yearly billing and a team-size selector offering 1-10, 11-50, 51-100 and 100+ employee bands. The figures below are as published at the smallest band, checked July 2026. Every plan price on the page is labelled "Starting At", so read each as a floor:

Plan	From, billed annually	From, monthly	Per employee / mo	Admins	Locations
Foundation	$99	$139	$8	1	2
Growth	$249	$299	$10	5	10
Advanced	$449	$519	$10	10	15
Elite	$449	Contact	$10	15	Unlimited

Two add-on modules are published separately: Incident Management from $399 per month billed annually, and the Advanced Program Library, which cross-maps controls across HIPAA, SOC 2, OSHA, ISO 27001, NIST and CIS, from $299 per month billed annually. Elite is published with a plan floor but arranges employee volume discounts and terms directly.

Note what is not here: an annual total. The plan fee and the per-employee fee are published as separate lines, the plan figures are floors rather than prices, and the per-employee rate is billed against a headcount only you know. Multiplying those together would produce our arithmetic, not Compliancy Group's price, so this page reports the dimensions and leaves the sum to you and your quote. The page also advertises up to 30 percent off for yearly billing, which is why the monthly column runs higher.

The Achieve platform

Compliancy Group's product is the Achieve HIPAA Compliance Software, a guided workflow platform that walks healthcare practices through risk assessment, policy adoption, training, BAA tracking, audit response preparation, and ongoing program maintenance. The product positioning is the "Seal of Compliance" methodology: customers complete a structured implementation process and earn the company's seal as a marketing and attestation artifact.

Core platform modules:

Risk assessment workflow: guided question-and-answer flow that produces a Security Rule risk-analysis document under 45 CFR 164.308(a)(1)(ii)(A).
Policy library: templates for Privacy Rule, Security Rule, Breach Notification Rule, and operations policies, customizable per practice.
Training modules: annual HIPAA training, role-based modules, sign-off tracking.
BAA tracker: central inventory of vendor BAAs with renewal dates and template BAA forms.
Incident log: structured workflow for tracking and responding to security incidents.
Audit response: document library and workflow for responding to OCR investigations or audits.
Compliance Coach support: named coach guides the customer through the program build.

This is an informational cost reference, not legal or compliance advice. Consult Compliancy Group directly for an exact quote for your practice size and complexity.

The Coach model in operational practice

The Compliance Coach is the feature that distinguishes Compliancy Group most clearly from software-first competitors. Compliancy Group describes it as live HIPAA coaching sessions included with the plan, and every published plan carries it. The Coach guides the customer through the risk assessment, policy adoption, training rollout and BAA portfolio rather than leaving the practice to work the Security Rule out alone.

What we can say about cadence. Compliancy Group publishes that coaching sessions are included, not how many, how long, or how quickly a coach responds. We have no primary source for those specifics, so this page does not invent them. Ask for the onboarding schedule and the response commitment in writing during your evaluation, because they are the substance of what the plan fee buys over cheaper software-only tools.

What the Coach does not replace. The Coach is not the customer's attorney and does not provide legal advice. For complex BAA negotiation, state-law overlay analysis, or breach-response coordination after an actual incident, customers need to engage a healthcare attorney separately. The Coach also does not implement technical safeguards in the customer's IT environment; the Coach documents what the customer has implemented but does not deploy encryption, MFA, EDR, or similar.

For practices without in-house compliance or healthcare legal expertise (most small and mid-size practices), the Coach support is the strongest value driver for the platform. For larger practices with in-house compliance staff, the Coach value is lower because the in-house expertise already exists.

Penetration testing	Track only	Third-party pen test vendor engaged separately
State-law overlay	Partial	Counsel engaged for state-specific variations
Breach response coordination	Document support	Counsel + breach-response firm for actual incidents
OCR investigation response	Workflow + Coach support	Counsel typically engaged in parallel

When Compliancy Group is the right fit

Strong fit: small to mid-size healthcare practices (medical, dental, behavioral health, pharmacy, ambulatory) that lack in-house compliance expertise and want guided support to build a defensible HIPAA program. Practices in OCR-investigation-prone segments (specialty practices, pharmacy, mental health) where the Coach's investigation-response workflow is meaningful. Practices preparing for vendor-onboarding diligence by hospital customers or payer partners.

Acceptable fit: mid-size practices and small DSOs with some in-house compliance comfort that still benefit from a centralized workflow and the Coach support during onboarding and annual cycle.

Not a fit: digital health startups and SaaS healthcare companies (use Drata, Vanta, Secureframe instead). Hospitals and integrated delivery networks (enterprise GRC platforms like Archer, ServiceNow GRC, MetricStream are the better match). Practices that need primarily software with minimal human support (Accountable HQ is more cost-efficient for this profile).

Compliancy Group cost FAQ

What does Compliancy Group cost?

Compliancy Group publishes a public rate card on its own pricing page (checked July 2026). It has two dimensions rather than one. The plan fee is worded as a starting price: Foundation from $99 per month billed annually ($139 monthly), Growth from $249 ($299 monthly), Advanced from $449 ($519 monthly), and Elite from $449 with volume terms arranged directly. On top of the plan sits a separate per-employee fee, published from $8 per employee per month on Foundation and from $10 on the higher plans, with monthly billing priced higher than annual. The page offers up to 30 percent off for yearly billing and lets you select a team-size band of 1-10, 11-50, 51-100 or 100+ employees. Because the plan fee and the per-employee fee are published as separate lines, and every plan figure is a floor, there is no single published annual price to quote: your figure depends on plan, headcount and billing term.

What is the Compliance Coach model?

Compliancy Group's distinguishing product feature is the Compliance Coach: a named human compliance specialist assigned to each customer who guides the customer through the risk assessment, policy adoption, training implementation, BAA tracking, and ongoing program maintenance. The Coach is typically a former compliance officer or healthcare attorney with HIPAA-specific experience. For practices that lack in-house compliance expertise (most small and mid-size practices), the Coach is meaningful: rather than figuring out the Security Rule alone, the Coach walks the practice through the work in plain language. The trade-off is that Coach availability is shared across the Coach's portfolio, so response times vary and on-demand consultation is limited compared to engaging an external HIPAA consultant directly.

How does Compliancy Group compare to Accountable HQ?

Both publish rate cards, which is unusual in this market, but they publish different shapes. Compliancy Group publishes a plan fee from $99 per month billed annually plus a separate per-employee fee from $8 per employee per month, so its price scales with headcount as a distinct line. Accountable HQ publishes flat per-tier pricing with a headcount allowance built in: Basic at $199 per month, or $169 billed annually, includes 15 employees, then Plus at $299 ($254 annually) and Pro at $799 ($679 annually). Both checked July 2026. Which is cheaper is a function of your headcount and the modules you need, and it is worth doing that arithmetic against both published cards rather than taking either entry figure as your number. The product difference is philosophy: Compliancy Group builds around the human Compliance Coach, Accountable HQ around self-service software.

What does the Compliancy Group platform generate evidence for?

The Achieve platform produces evidence for the major Security Rule and Privacy Rule control areas: risk assessment documentation under 45 CFR 164.308(a)(1)(ii)(A), policy and procedure library covering Security Rule and Privacy Rule, training records with workforce sign-off, BAA portfolio tracking with renewal dates, security incident log and breach-notification documentation, and an annual compliance audit workflow. The platform does not directly perform technical safeguard implementation (encryption, MFA, EDR); those are deployed on the practice's IT side and documented in the platform.

What does Compliancy Group not cover?

Five categories of HIPAA program work the platform does not directly provide. First, technical-safeguard implementation: deploying encryption, MFA, EDR, MDM, network segmentation, audit logging in the practice's IT environment. Second, third-party risk assessment or penetration testing: the platform tracks that the assessment was done but does not perform it. Third, legal counsel review of BAAs or complex consent forms. Fourth, breach-response coordination with HHS OCR after an actual incident. Fifth, state-law overlay analysis (Texas HB 300, California CMIA, New York SHIELD, etc.) beyond the federal HIPAA baseline. Practices typically need an external HIPAA consultant or attorney for these gap areas. Those engagements are quoted per scope rather than published, so budget them from your own quotes.

Is Compliancy Group a good fit for digital health startups?

Generally not as the primary GRC platform. Compliancy Group is designed for established healthcare practices (medical, dental, behavioral health, pharmacy). Digital health startups and SaaS healthcare companies typically need a GRC platform that handles SOC 2 + HIPAA + ISO 27001 + maybe HITRUST in a unified workflow, which is the Drata, Vanta, Secureframe, or Tugboat Logic market. Compliancy Group does not target this segment as a primary use case. Some digital health companies use Compliancy Group for the HIPAA-specific layer alongside a separate SOC 2 platform, but this is uncommon.

What happens to the price at renewal?

Compliancy Group publishes a rate card but not a renewal policy, and it publishes no retention statistics. We have no primary source for what happens to a given practice's price at renewal, so this page does not estimate one. What the published card does tell you is which levers move your bill: the plan tier, the number of employees you are billed for, and whether you are on monthly or annual billing, since the page prices monthly higher and advertises up to 30 percent off for yearly terms. Headcount growth moves the per-employee line automatically, which is worth modelling before you sign if you expect to hire.
