Know about Compliance Webinar

Compliance with HIPAA regulations is more important than ever. With standards updated subsequently because of the HITECH Rule in 2009, there are more precautions to take into consideration, in addition to greater consequences for non-compliance than ever before. These updates apply not only primarily to Covered Entities, as was documented in the original HIPAA act, but also compels compliance from Business Associates. Any organizations that deal with Protected Health Information (PHI) in some way, shape or form may now be required to comply with HIPAA regulations.

HIPAA compliance can be an overwhelming process. Attending the Compliance Webinar will give your organization the overview of what it takes to be in accordance with HIPAA regulations. The webinar can help you determine what resources (staff, consultants, and automatic software tools) can help build the organizational infrastructure to handle HIPAA Compliance. With such infrastructure, compliance can turn from a burden to a process that is highly manageable and efficient.

During the webinar, experts will explain and elaborate on HIPAA, HITECH, Meaningful Use, and Omnibus. The process of risk assessments, tracking of incidents, managing paper trail, reporting of data, and managing concealed issues will all be addressed. We'll go through the various components of HIPAA, including the Privacy, Security, Enforcement, and Breach Notification Rule. In addition, the various Administrative, Technical, Organizational, and Physical safeguards required will be explained. This includes a host of issues: from ensuring security of the premises, making sure system passwords are secure, safeguarding that the right staff has access to the right data, tocertifying data is encrypted at all levels.

We can show you that compliance, with an effective and efficient infrastructure, can be more economical and less complicated than you believed. Not just that, doing so will mitigate the costs of non-compliance, which could be several times greater than what it would take to achieve compliance. Sign up today!
