You should sign a BAA with Koalendar if you use the platform to schedule appointments that may involve protected health information (PHI), such as:
- Patient names linked to medical services

Healthcare providers, clinics, therapists, and medical organizations commonly require a BAA to ensure HIPAA compliance.
