HIPAA compliant AI · every model provider · one BAA
One business associate agreement with Garrison covers every AI model provider. You pay exactly what the provider charges. Not a cent more, for any model. When a provider covers a new model, so do we.
Pricing
Two plans. The difference is retention. The pricing page has the detail.
Standard retention. Identifiers on the HIPAA Safe Harbor list are removed, then usage data is kept as your BAA permits. The de-identification clause is explicit in the agreement.
Nothing is kept. Prompts and responses exist only in memory for the length of the call. The plan most enterprise security reviews ask for.
How it works
Garrison is your business associate. Every model provider you use sits behind that one agreement. Getting a new provider under it is our work, not yours.
The API takes the request shape your client already sends. Swap the base URL and the key. The rest of your code does not know anything changed.
Claude, GPT, Gemini, Llama, Qwen, DeepSeek, Kimi, and whatever ships next. Switching is a string.
# the whole migration
client = OpenAI(
base_url="https://api.garrisonhealthsystems.com/v1",
api_key=os.environ["GARRISON_API_KEY"],
)
client.chat.completions.create(

FAQ
Every request you send through Garrison, to every provider on the list. Garrison is your business associate under HIPAA. Your security review sees one sub-processor list, maintained by us.
When the provider covers it, we do. On AWS, Azure and Google that is the day a model goes generally available. On the OpenAI and Anthropic APIs it is when the model is on their covered list. We never route patient data to preview or beta models.
Identifiers on the HIPAA Safe Harbor list: names, dates finer than year, ages over 89, contact details, record and account numbers, addresses, and the rest of the eighteen. The clause that lets Garrison do this is written into your BAA.
Retention. On the standard plan, de-identified usage data is retained under the terms of your BAA. On zero retention, nothing is kept. Token prices are the same on both.
No. You pay the provider's published price on every token, on both plans.
