Description
This 90 minute webinar is specifically geared towards those who are responsible for HIPAA HITECH Compliance within an organization.
HIPAA Security Officials and IT Managers would benefit greatly.
I will go step by step through the current regulation (as it stands today) and compare with what the new proposed requirements will be.
We will also be discussing current breaches, most common breaches, telemedicine, texting, emailing, the 21st Century Cures Act (Information Blocking), and the OCR audit process.
There’s an enormous number of issues and risks for covered entities and business associates these days – we will speak to the most common violations and fines – and how to best avoid fines and headaches.
I will speak on specific experiences from over 23 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.

Join me in this 90-minute webinar to explore what’s changing with HIPAA HITECH Security Rule and what Business Associates need to do to be prepared
More breaches of protected have occurred since 2022 (to current date) than the entire history of this regulation combined times 10 – the government is taking major actions to strengthen this regulation and one of those actions is the requirement for all business associates to conduct a HIPAA HITECH Risk Assessment on an annual basis and provide an attestation to clients.
We will be discussing 2026 changes taking place in Washington with the Health and Human Services regarding the bipartisan backed enforcement and updates of the HIPAA Security Rule laws and what Business Associates need to do for compliance.
