HIPAA Without the Headache at Hinge Health: Simple PHI Governance With Fine Grain Access Control

Hinge Health faced challenges in hiring global data teams due to the complexities of PHI (Protected Health Information) governance. Unable to hire without compliant data sharing and unable to scale PHI governance without a larger team, we overcame this chicken or the egg challenge by adopting Unity Catalog's Fine-Grain Access Control.

In this session, we will share our journey migrating to Unity Catalog, securing PHI with row filters/column masks, lessons learned and how our efforts surpassed our own expectations. This session equips data teams with strategies for HIPAA compliance without compromising flexibility and collaboration.

Hinge Health is the leading digital MSK clinic, serving 11M+ members and 500+ employer health plans offering virtual physical therapy to reduce pain, surgeries and opioid use.
