Overview:
This 4-hour seminar will be addressing how practice/business managers (or compliance offers) need to get their HIPAA house in order before the imminent audits occur. It will also address major changes under the Omnibus Rule and any other applicable updates for 2024.
Areas also covered will be texting, email, encryption, medical messaging, voice data, and risk factors as they relate to IT.
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 regarding the do's and don'ts with HIPAA - I want to add clarity for compliance officers and what you guys need to do and how to best implement your HIPAA program based on over 18 years of personal experience working with Federal auditors, state auditors, and corporate auditors.
We will go through multiple scenarios that are commonly faced by compliance officers and how to manage these situations
I will also speak to real-life litigated cases I have worked on where HIPAA is being used to justify state cases of negligence - THIS IS BECOMING A HUGE RISK!
In addition, this course will cover the highest risk factors for being sued as well as being audited (these two items tend to go hand in hand).
Why you should Attend:
Join me in this in-depth 4-hour seminar where we will get into the nitty-gritty of the roles and responsibilities of a HIPAA Compliance Officer.
Do you have an effective HIPAA compliance program? Do you know what needs to be done to satisfy the requirements?
New laws, funding, and enforcement mean increased risk for business associates and covered entities - 2023 was a record year for enforcement, and fines - 2024 will be no different.
HIPAA Omnibus - Do you know what's involved and what you must do?
