Overview:

This lesson will be addressing how practice/business managers (or compliance offers) need to get their HIPAA house in order as HIPAA is now fully enforced and the government is not using kid gloves any more.

It will also address major changes under the Omnibus Rule, the Trump administration, and any other applicable updates for 2022 and beyond.

There are an enormous amount of issues and risks for covered entities and business associates these days. I will speak on specific experiences from over 18 years of experience in working as an outsourced compliance auditor, expert witness on multiple HIPAA cases, and thoroughly explain how patients are now able to get cash remedies for wrongful disclosures of private health information.

More importantly, I will show you how to limit those risks by simply taking proactive steps and utilizing best practices.

Why should you Attend:

  • Omnibus has changed the HIPAA landscape for good!
  • This once rarely enforced law has changed and you need to know what's going on!
  • Protect your practice or business!
  • This day trial attorney poses a higher risk than the Federal government!
