PALO ALTO, Calif., May 21, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Branch, the industry’s leading linking and measurement partner for growth-focused teams, today announces the release of Branch Advanced Compliance, a premium solution that provides enhanced security, privacy and data measures for customers in heavily regulated industries like healthcare.

In alignment with evolving guidance from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Branch Advanced Compliance offers enhanced security and privacy measures to help customers satisfy their HIPAA obligations.

Eighty-seven percent identified shifting government regulations as a disruption to their business, and 70% reported that patient demands directly impact their firms’ long-term strategies. Meanwhile, over half (54%) of surveyed healthcare leaders recognized that having the right partner can help them navigate these complex industry changes.
