Overview: This lesson will be addressing how practice/business managers (or compliance offers) need to get their HIPAA house in order before the imminent audits occur. It will also address major changes under the Omnibus Rule and any other applicable updates for 2015. 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, expert witness on 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.Why should you attend:How to have an affective HIPAA compliance programNew laws and funding mean increased risk!HIPAA Omnibus - Do you know what's involved and what you need to do?What does Omnibus mean for covered entities and business associates?Why should you be concerned?Court cases that are changing the landscape of HIPAA and patient's ability to sueAreas Covered in the Session:Updates for 2016FinesBusiness associates and the increased burdenBreach notificationPaperwork that needs to be updatedRisk factorsWho Will Benefit:Practice ManagersAny Business Associates who work with Medical Practices or HospitalsBilling CompaniesTranscription CompaniesIT CompaniesAnswering ServicesHome HealthCodersAttorneysMD's and other Medical ProfessionalsPrice : $139.00Contact Info:MentorHealthPhone No: 1-800-385-1607FaX: 302-288-6884
