About Us
Headquartered in Portland, Ore., Apgar & Associates, LLC was formed by Chris Apgar in May, 2004 to address the healthcare industry's growing need to comply with information privacy and security requirements, such as those resulting from the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and new state laws regarding identity theft. While our roots are in healthcare, we have expanded our services to the financial services industry.
