2012 - New Amendments to HIPAA Regulations - New Final Amendments Create New Challenges - Webinar By MentorHealth

Overview:
New changes modifying the HIPAA Privacy and Security Regulations are going into place to meet the privacy and security mandates within the HITECH Act in the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009.
New requirements for business associates of HIPAA covered entities and requirements to notify individuals in the event of a breach are only two of the many areas affected in the new law, including new requirements for restriction and accounting of disclosures and increased enforcement activity. Covered entities that use electronic health records (EHRs) will need to meet new access and disclosure rules and all kinds of business associates and their subcontractors will need to establish compliance programs. A whole range of new regulations around the release and accounting of electronic records have created new burdens that your EHR and your medical records department must deal with.
