It is a vendor claim. The verifiable facts are a BAA (public, on request or not offered), a HIPAA-mapped SOC 2 or HITRUST assessment, and the products the BAA covers.
Many vendors sign a BAA only for specific plans or products. Confirm the covered products with the vendor before sending protected health information.
