Description

To make matters more complicated, the Supreme Court clarified the False Claims Act statute of limitations (including that you must keep records for 10 years versus 6 years) – unless your state law requires longer. This means you must change how you maintain, store, and destroy your patient records to avoid violation and hefty HIPAA penalties. And your paper, electronic, and digital files are equally at risk.

That’s where healthcare attorneys Daphne Kackloudis, JD, and Ashley Watson, JD, can help. During their 60-minute online training session, they’ll walk you through the recent medical records destruction and retention regulation changes you must comply with. You’ll get a plain English breakdown of precisely how to comply to avoid violations and massive penalties.

Here are just some of the practical medical records destruction and retention strategies you’ll receive by attending this essential, 60-minute online training:

  • Plain-English breakdown of Supreme Court ruling clarifying False Claims Act statute of limitations
  • Prevent patient complaints on patient records retention (the #3 reason for violations)
  • Avoid added fines when you mail lab and other PHI, and determine what actions you must take before and after
  • Take these practice-protecting steps to update your medical records destruction plan and policy
  • Identify best practices for storage of records – digital and physical
  • Prevent getting into trouble for destroying a credit card record too quickly
  • How to handle records that are accidentally destroyed or lost due to acts of nature
  • Institute reminder policies to destroy records only when you should
  • The checklist identifies often missed PHI – no-show patient records, emails, attorney requests, and more
  • State vs. Federal requirements. Find out simple ways to comply
  • Resist breaking destruction requirements from tricky-to-handle pictures sent via text
  • Pin down exactly what medical records pieces HIPAA requires you to retain and destroy on time
  • Documentation essentials for medical records destruction that will keep you out of hot water

IMPORTANT: The longer you retain records, the harder it is to keep them secure. This means that the Supreme Court rule changes have made your life more difficult. All it takes is one patient to complain about how you are managing their medical records, and you could be audited and left to pay huge violation penalties.

Don’t let this happen to your practice. Register for this medical records destruction policy compliance online training today and get it right the first time.
