Overview:

This 4-Hour Virtual Seminar will get into the fine details of what we need to do and how to do it.

We will go point by point through the entire HIPAA Security Rule and uncover simple methods to comply with and create policy.

The primary goal is to ensure everyone is well educated on what is a myth and what is a reality with this law, there is so much misleading information all over regarding the dos and don'ts with HIPAA - I want to add clarity for compliance officers.

It will also address major changes under the Omnibus Rule and any other applicable updates for 2024.
