The HITECH Acts Impact on HIPPA - Webinar by GlobalCompliancePanel

 
  September 22, 2010  
     
 


GlobalCompliancePanel, Online Training Webinar
2010-10-13


This webinar will cover the changes required by the HITECH Act and the actions that needed to taken regarding breach notification, business associate contracts, training of staff and security of PHI for business associates. We will also discuss the best practices for data compliance given the impacts on your IT department.

Why Should You Attend: The HITECH Act was one of dozens of provisions tucked into the economic stimulus package, known as the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, in February 2009. The Act includes beefed-up security provisions in tandem with incentive funds from Medicare and Medicaid to help pay for adoption of electronic health records at hospitals and physician group practices. The intent is to help ensure that as more information is digitized it will remain secure.

Enforcement of perhaps the most significant security provision of HITECH, the security breach notification rule, kicked in earlier this year.

The HITECH Act has accelerated health IT efforts because of the potential bonuses for early compliance and future penalties for not complying with the new regulations. Is your Company on the road to compliance?
