I recently joined a healthcare company to set up and run its contract management function. While I have lots of contract management experience. The nuances of health care contract management are new to me. We have a lot of Business Associates Agreements (BAAs). Our team asks me for a new every time they start talking to a potential vendor or provider. I would like a better understanding of a BAA, but I also need to know when a Business Associates Agreement is required and once executed, how do I track it.

We have contracts with regulated companies (health care). The contracts require us as a vendor to monitor and comply with laws that cover our work with our clients. Our client health care companies also have the right to review our performance and processes. I'm not sure how to perform or track compliance reviews related to a contract.
