## Switching Between Accounts in HIPAAtizer


HIPAAtizer allows you to be a member of multiple **Covered Entity accounts** using the same email address. This is useful if you work with multiple organizations or hold different roles in separate accounts.

## Main Account vs. Additional Accounts

- **Main Account**: The first account you created or were invited to when signing up with HIPAAtizer.
- **Additional Accounts**: Other Covered Entity accounts you have been invited to by their Account Owner or Security Officer.

Each account can assign you a **different role** (e.g., *Security Officer* in one account and *Assistant* in another).
