Synopsis

This session focuses on HIPAA's Omnibus Rule, which requires all healthcare practices to implement proper safeguards to protect patient health information. If a practice violates regulations, it is at risk of noncompliance fees ranging from $100 - $50,000 per violation. While navigating HIPAA law can feel overwhelming, by the end of this session attendees should understand many of the law's components.

Learning Objectives
  1. Understand the HIPAA Omnibus Rule and its requirements;
  2. Explain what it means to have an ongoing culture of compliance in the practice; and
  3. Define the key vulnerabilities facing most practices.
