HIPAA & OSHA Compliance for Dental Offices

Yes. HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) applies to every employee who handles patient health information — front desk, assistants, hygienists, and dentists. OSHA's Bloodborne Pathogens standard (29 CFR 1910.1030) requires annual training for any clinical staff with occupational exposure to blood or infectious materials. Nearly every dental practice is subject to both.

Yes. Stampwell offers free HIPAA or OSHA training (you get to pick one) to dental offices with up to 25 staff. For full compliance and every module, upgrade to Pro.

HIPAA requires training for all new employees and retraining whenever policies or procedures change. Most dental practices train annually to stay current and audit-ready. Stampwell makes it easy to retrain your entire team in minutes.

OSHA (29 CFR 1910.1030) requires Bloodborne Pathogens training at the time of initial assignment and at least annually thereafter. New tasks with occupational exposure also trigger required retraining.

Yes. Every Stampwell certificate is recorded twice: as a printable certificate for you and your team, and on the Stampwell certificate ledger. An auditor scans the QR code on the certificate and checks it against the ledger, so it can be independently verified and cannot be tampered with.

Yes. Stampwell automatically logs everything your compliance program produces: every training completion, every signed policy and employee attestation, and every officer appointment, all timestamped. You can demonstrate compliance during an HHS OCR HIPAA audit or an OSHA inspection, and your records are always ready to download.

Stampwell is free because we want every dental office to see how effortless compliance can be. Price should never be a barrier. We also spend nothing on marketing and grow by word of mouth, so the money other companies spend finding customers goes into a generous free tier instead.
