Project management tools (Asana, Jira, Monday, Notion, ClickUp) often end up holding PHI in task descriptions, attachments, and comments — especially in healthcare engineering, clinical operations, and patient-onboarding workflows. Most consumer or standard plans do NOT include a BAA. This guide compares which project management tools are HIPAA eligible and on which tier.

Asana Enterprise+ and Atlassian Cloud Enterprise are HIPAA compliant with signed BAAs. Monday Enterprise supports BAA on healthcare-specific contracts. ClickUp Enterprise has a BAA path. Free, Standard, and Pro plans of these tools generally do NOT qualify. Notion does not currently offer a BAA.
Asana offers a BAA on Enterprise+ contracts. Includes data residency controls, audit logs, and SAML SSO required for HIPAA configuration.
Atlassian offers a BAA on Cloud Enterprise plans. Covers Jira, Confluence, and Bitbucket Cloud. Requires HIPAA configuration through Atlassian compliance team.
BAA available on Enterprise contracts for healthcare customers. Requires contract negotiation and HIPAA-specific account configuration.
HIPAA compliance available on Enterprise plans with a signed BAA. Standard, Unlimited, and Business plans do not qualify.
Linear does not currently offer a BAA. Do not store PHI in Linear issues or comments.
Notion does not offer a BAA as of 2026. Do not store PHI in Notion pages, databases, or comments — even on the paid Plus or Business plans.
No BAA on free or basic tiers of any major PM tool. Even on paid Premium/Pro tiers, BAA is typically Enterprise-only.
BAA availability is gated to Enterprise tiers across all major project management vendors. Atlassian Cloud Enterprise and Asana Enterprise+ are the most commonly used in healthcare engineering. Monday and ClickUp require sales-channel BAA negotiation. Notion and Linear currently do not offer BAA and should not store PHI.
Confirm Enterprise plan + signed BAA before any project handles PHI.
Enable SAML SSO, MFA, and SCIM provisioning to ensure access controls are auditable.
Restrict PHI-containing projects to a dedicated workspace with audit logging enabled.
Configure DLP integrations to block PHI moving to non-covered tools (Notion, Linear, etc.).
Disable public-share links on PHI projects.
Define a retention policy aligned with HIPAA retention requirements (6 years minimum).
Only on Asana Enterprise+ plans with a signed BAA. Standard Asana, Asana Premium, and Business plans do not qualify. If your team handles PHI in tasks or comments, you must be on Enterprise+ with the BAA accepted.
Yes, on Atlassian Cloud Enterprise plans with a signed BAA. Atlassian's BAA covers Jira, Confluence, and Bitbucket Cloud. Standard, Premium, and Free Atlassian plans do not qualify.
No. As of 2026, Notion does not offer a Business Associate Agreement on any plan, including Enterprise. Do not store PHI in Notion pages, databases, or shared workspaces. Use a HIPAA-eligible alternative like Confluence or Asana Enterprise+ for documentation that may include PHI.
No. Trello does not currently offer a BAA. Even though Trello is owned by Atlassian, it is NOT covered under the Atlassian Cloud Enterprise BAA. Switch PHI-related workflows to Jira if you need an Atlassian product.
Generally no. Zapier does not offer a BAA. If you need automation between HIPAA-eligible tools, use vendor-native integrations or a HIPAA-eligible iPaaS like Paragon, Workato (Enterprise BAA), or build the integration directly.
Confirm whether the AI feature is covered under your vendor's BAA before enabling it on workspaces containing PHI. If it is not covered, disable the feature for those workspaces.
