Question 1

Can a static site be HIPAA-compliant?

Accepted Answer

The marketing website itself should never collect Protected Health Information (PHI) — that's the cleanest compliance posture and it's the same advice HHS gives. We build the public site to handle only non-PHI contact: name, phone, reason for visit at a general level. Anything that touches PHI (appointment booking with conditions, refill requests, secure messaging) deep-links to your existing HIPAA-compliant patient portal (Athenahealth, Epic MyChart, NextGen, Kareo, eClinicalWorks, Dentrix, Open Dental, etc.) — which is already under a BAA with its vendor.

Question 2

Why are medical practices moving off WordPress?

Accepted Answer

Cost ($200–$600/month typical once HIPAA-claiming plugins are added), security (plugin CVEs around any form near PHI is a real liability), and speed (slow mobile pages lose new-patient acquisition to faster competitors). A static site removes the plugin attack surface entirely.

Question 3

Will my Google rankings survive a migration?

Accepted Answer

Yes — URLs preserved, 301 redirects in place, MedicalBusiness / Physician / Dentist schema added or upgraded, Core Web Vitals typically move from failing to passing. Most practices see ranking lifts within 60–90 days, particularly on Google Maps where speed and structured data both matter.

Question 4

Can patients book appointments?

Accepted Answer

Yes — through a deep link to your existing scheduling system (Zocdoc, Solutionreach, NexHealth, Athenahealth, Epic, etc.) or to a BAA-covered scheduler. The public site never holds the booking data itself.

Question 5

Do you handle multi-provider, multi-location practices?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Each location gets its own LocalBusiness / MedicalClinic page with NAP consistency and GBP sync. Each provider gets a Person + Physician (or Dentist, etc.) schema bio with credentials, board certifications, hospital affiliations, and accepted insurance. Cleanly structured so Google and AI engines surface the right provider for the right query.
