Estimated loss · downtime

$8,400/hr

Per hour a small practice can't see patients. Industry average.

When your software goes down, your schedule stops.

A small dental office that can't open charts, x-rays, or insurance verification loses revenue, trust, and the rest of the day's bookings. We keep the line of business running — patched, backed up, and monitored 24/7.

Estimated exposure · HIPAA

$50,000+

Average HHS settlement per violation. Single incident can carry multiple.

HIPAA isn't optional. The fines aren't either.

Every practice is required to perform a Security Risk Analysis and have a signed BAA with every vendor that touches PHI — including the IT provider. Sentoria signs a BAA and runs a HIPAA-aware operation.

Three plans. One flat invoice. Everything covered.

Per-user, per-month — no surprise tickets, no hourly stopwatch. Pick the level that fits your risk profile.

01 / 04

Security-first by default.

Encrypted endpoints, tested backups, documented patching — every workstation hardened the way a HIPAA audit would want it hardened. Not bolted on after a breach.

02 / 04

We sign a BAA.

As your IT provider, we're a HIPAA Business Associate — and we act like one. A signed BAA, documented controls, and an annual SRA are part of the deal.

03 / 04

Local to Columbia, MD.

We're in Howard County and serve the greater DMV. When something needs hands on a server, we drive — we don't dial a national help desk.

04 / 04

Flat monthly pricing.

One per-user, per-month invoice. No nickel-and-dime tickets, no surprise after-hours rates. Budget the year on a single line item.
