HIPAA and the new HiTech amendments (Part Two)
Overview of the privacy, security and breach notification rules
Presenters:
Karin M. Zaner and Jennifer S. Brownell, Kane Russell Coleman & Logan PC
Business associates and covered entities must comply with HIPAA's Privacy, Security and Breach Notification Rules. Anyone who is undertaking new compliance efforts or evaluating existing efforts must have a working knowledge of these three rules and their underlying aims. In this podcast, Karin and Jennifer generally review and discuss the purpose behind and the basic safeguards set out in the Privacy, Security and Breach Notification Rules, so that covered entities and business associates (including attorneys who are handling protected health information in the course of representing their clients) can begin to evaluate existing compliance efforts or craft new compliance policies and procedures.
