HIPAA Compliance Guardian MCP Server

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides comprehensive HIPAA compliance guidance for developers building healthcare applications. This server offers expert knowledge and tools to help ensure your applications meet HIPAA Security and Privacy Rule requirements.

🏥 What is HIPAA?

The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) establishes national standards for protecting sensitive patient health information. This MCP server provides developers with:

PHI Identification: Determine if your data constitutes Protected Health Information
Security Requirements: Understand encryption and technical safeguard requirements
Business Associate Rules: Navigate third-party vendor compliance
Communication Guidelines: Learn compliant notification and messaging practices
Safeguards Checklist: Comprehensive technical and physical safeguard requirements

Related MCP server: HIPAA Compliance MCP

Use Case: When you need to determine if your app's data collection requires HIPAA compliance

2. `checkDataEncryptionRequirements`

Purpose: Get specific encryption requirements from the HIPAA Security Rule

Input: None required

Use Case: Understanding technical safeguards for data protection

3. `getBusinessAssociateRules`

Purpose: Learn about Business Associate compliance requirements

Input: None required

Use Case: When working with third-party vendors or cloud services

4. `getNotificationAndCommunicationRules`

Purpose: Understand compliant communication methods

Input: None required

Use Case: Implementing user notifications, emails, or push notifications

5. `getSafeguardsChecklist`

Purpose: Get comprehensive technical and physical safeguard requirements

Input: None required

Use Case: Building a compliance checklist for your application

📋 Example Usage

Scenario: Building a Fitness App with Health Data

// Check if step count data requires HIPAA compliance
const phiCheck = await confirmIfDataIsPHI({
  dataType: "user step count and heart rate data"
});

// Get encryption requirements
const encryptionRules = await checkDataEncryptionRequirements();

// Check notification compliance
const notificationRules = await getNotificationAndCommunicationRules();

Scenario: Healthcare Provider Integration

// Understand Business Associate requirements
const baRules = await getBusinessAssociateRules();

// Get comprehensive safeguards
const safeguards = await getSafeguardsChecklist();

📚 Knowledge Base

The server uses a comprehensive HIPAA knowledge base (hipaa-content.json) containing:

HIPAA Basics: What is HIPAA and who it applies to
Security Rule: Technical, physical, and administrative safeguards
Mobile Applications: Specific guidance for mobile health apps
Developer Considerations: Practical implementation advice
Business Associates: Third-party vendor requirements

Adding New Tools

Define the tool schema:

server.tool(
  'yourToolName',
  {
    description: 'What your tool does',
    schema: z.object({
      // Define your input parameters
    }),
  },

    return {
      content: [{
        type: 'text',
        text: 'Your response here'
      }]
    };
  }
);

Update the knowledge base in hipaa-content.json if needed

D1/5.0

Behavior1/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

Tool has no description.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness1/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Tool has no description.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness1/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

Tool has no description.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters1/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Tool has no description.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose1/5

TDQS

D1.7/5.0

Disambiguation2/5

Multiple tools have unclear boundaries and overlapping purposes, as most tools are 'getX' checklists or informational resources that could be confused for one another. For example, 'getGeneralDataSecurityChecklist' and 'getSecurityRuleSafeguards' likely cover similar ground, and the two non-get tools ('confirmCodeCompliance' and 'evaluateComplianceNeed') are ambiguous in how they differ from each other and the informational tools.

Naming Consistency4/5

The naming is mostly consistent, with 13 of 15 tools following a clear 'getX' pattern, which is predictable and readable. However, there are minor deviations with 'confirmCodeCompliance' and 'evaluateComplianceNeed' using verb-based names instead, breaking the dominant convention and slightly reducing consistency.

Tool Count4/5

With 15 tools, the count is reasonable and well-scoped for a HIPAA compliance server, as it covers various aspects like checklists, definitions, and penalties. It's slightly on the higher side but not excessive, as each tool appears to target a specific sub-domain within HIPAA guidance.

Completeness3/5

The tool surface has notable gaps in coverage for the HIPAA compliance domain. While it provides extensive informational and checklist resources (e.g., for security, breaches, vendors), it lacks core operational tools for actions like creating, updating, or managing compliance records, audits, or incidents, which are essential for a complete lifecycle in this domain.
