There are an enormous amount of issues and risks for covered entities and business associates these days. Speaker will speak on specific experiences from over 17 years of experience in working as an outsourced compliance auditor, expert witness on HIPAA cases, and thoroughly explain how patients are now able to get cash remedies for wrongful disclosures of private health information.
More importantly speaker will show you how to limit those risks by simply taking proactive steps and utilizing best practices.
He will be going into great detail regarding you practice or business and how it relates to the HIPAA Security/Privacy Rule,
Areas Covered:

Speaker will uncover myths versus reality as it relates to this very enigmatic law based on over 600 risk assessments performed as well as years of experience in dealing directly with the Office of Civil Rights HIPAA auditors.
Seminar Fee Includes:
He will also speak to real life audits conducted by the Federal government (he has been on both sides of these audits) what your highest risks are for being fined (some of the risk factors may surprise you).
In addition, this course will cover the highest risk factors for being sued for wrongful disclosures of PHI and the manner in which patients are now using state laws to sue for wrongful disclosures.
