HIPAA Email Encryption for Pharmacists| No New Email or IT Needed

HIPAA compliance is necessary business for pharmacists but don't feel you need to lose email as a communications tool because of it. And, despite what many "HIPAA Compliant Email Providers" or consultants may tell you, making your email safe can actually be quite easy and low cost. You can keep your current email address(es) and be sending HIPAA compliant email a few minutes from now.

Quick Summary for Pharmacists Who Need HIPAA Email Encryption

Pharmacists need email encryption that actually works, without all the IT drama. Here’s the big picture:

• Pharmacists are bound by HIPAA compliance — and email needs to meet strict standards
• HIPAA-compliant email is often expensive, complicated — or both.
• SecureMyEmail can be set up in just a few minutes — No IT Dept. required
• Works with your existing email provider — Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo, your custom domain, whatever. Any email address will work.
• Includes our quick and simple BAA (paid accounts only)
• Low cost — Only $2.50/month per user with annual subscription ($29.99/year)
• Free trial available — Try it now. No sales calls, no credit card.

Still Faxing Forms Like It’s 1997?

We get it. You're a pharmacist, not an IT admin. But when it comes to patient privacy, you're still on the hook for HIPAA compliance, even if your "IT team" is your daughter who set up the Wi-Fi.

And unfortunately, Email doesn’t magically become HIPAA-compliant just because it’s “encrypted” or password-protected. If your provider isn’t offering a signed BAA, it’s not compliant. Period.

If you’re sending prescriptions, prior authorizations, insurance forms, or anything remotely sensitive over email, you need a complete solution.

But, despite what they may tell you, it doesn't have to be complicated.

The Enterprise Options Are Overkill

Big pharmacy chains have dedicated IT teams to manage  expensive Microsoft 365 + Purview setups (Business Premium, which included email encryption is $22.00/month per user!) and the like. But for most independent pharmacists and small pharmacy groups, those solutions are:

• Way too expensive
• Too complex to manage
• Often require plugins or new email addresses
• A total pain to set up and use

You simply don't need a six-figure contract, a consultant, or a PhD in InfoSec just to email a doctor about a refill. And (if we may say so), SecureMyEmail is far more modern, and pleasant to use, for you and your recipients.

The Problem with Most Other HIPAA Email Providers

There’s no shortage of companies claiming to offer HIPAA-compliant email. But here’s the thing — many of them rely on outdated encryption methods, confusing configurations, or scare tactics to make email security seem harder than it is. Making HIPAA compliant email is not quantum physics. 

Why do they make it seem so complicated? So they can charge more. Many require user minimums. Others force you to change email platforms altogether. And too many still rely on clunky portals or make your recipient jump through hoops.

That’s not compliance — that’s just more to deal with for no reason.
