HIPAA Compliance Officer Training | HIPAA Professional 2018

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 and any other applicable updates for 2018 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 17 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.

We will go into detail on the highest risk factors and how they commonly occur.

Why you should attend:

The HIPAA Omnibus Rule has changed the HIPAA landscape for good!

This once rarely enforced law has changed and you need to know what's going on!
What are the new roles and responsibilities for compliance officers?
Protect your practice or business!
