I'm just starting out (just received my diploma from transcription courses), and want to know what kind of hardware / software I need to be compliant with HIPAA regulations. Any help would be appreciated.

More than likely, any HIPAA compliance equipment/software will be addressed and provided by the company that you sign on with. Make sure that you have secured your wireless connection if you use one. Other than that, I would not invest in anything until after you find your first job.
