What BlueOrange Compliance does

BlueOrange Compliance is a U.S. healthcare-focused cybersecurity and HIPAA compliance services firm founded around 2009, coinciding with the HITECH Act, and headquartered in Dublin, Ohio. The company delivers a portfolio of professional services anchored by HIPAA Security Risk Assessments mapped to the NIST Cybersecurity Framework (now CSF 2.0, integrated with NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 and NIST SP 800-66 Rev. 2), tiered Penetration Testing (101/201/301), Phishing Awareness Testing and Training, OCR Audit Preparation, Ransomware Resilience assessments, SEIM solutions, and incident response. Its proprietary Slice (SLICE) Dashboard provides real-time compliance tracking and peer benchmarking, supported by a dataset derived from 1,000+ completed HIPAA SRAs.

BlueOrange serves three primary verticals: Healthcare Providers (hospitals, health systems, physician practices), Senior Living Organizations (CCRCs, assisted living, nursing facilities), and Business Associates (pharmacies, homecare, hospice). The company reports 250+ active customers across 47 U.S. states, a 98% client retention rate, and a 100% OCR audit pass rate. Go-to-market is consultative enterprise sales through a "Request a Consult" motion, supplemented by content marketing, webinars, industry conferences (HIMSS, LeadingAge, AHHC of NC, American Health Law Association), and a monthly newsletter. Pricing is custom-quoted based on organization size and selected service levels, structured as multi-year contracts that combine project-based engagements with recurring managed services.

In 2026, BlueOrange became a wholly-owned subsidiary of CloudWave, a healthcare managed services provider, and was approved as a Collaborator in the MEDITECH Alliance Program. The combination provides channel access into MEDITECH hospital and health system customers, shared infrastructure, and cross-sell opportunities into CloudWave's broader cloud, cybersecurity, and managed IT portfolio. BlueOrange continues to operate under its own brand identity with co-founder John DiMaggio transitioning to a Managing Director role at CloudWave.
