Is Your Practice Website Ready?
Website accessibility is becoming an important compliance requirement for healthcare organizations that receive federal financial assistance. Updated Section 504 regulations require many physician practices to ensure their websites and mobile applications meet WCAG 2.1 Level A and AA accessibility standards.
Practices with 15 or more employees must comply by May 11, 2027, while smaller practices have until May 10, 2028. Working with your website developer now can help avoid costly updates later.
This brief outlines the compliance timeline and provides guidance on discussing accessibility requirements with your website vendor.
