HIPAA Changes That Will Impact Your Organization

HIPAA compliance is changing; ensure you are up-to-date with all of the recent changes.

HIPAA compliance has recently seen big changes in how the rules are enforced for individual access requests. Long-overdue changes may be coming to regulations on the accounting of disclosures of protected health information (PHI). We can expect new rules regarding the HIPAA Notice of Privacy Practices and calling patients' cell phones, and proposed changes to the Privacy Rule will impact the coordination of care. There have also been calls for HIPAA expansions to cover new technologies and new uses of PHI. There is no shortage of critical topics for medical offices to respond to in order to meet requirements and avoid penalties. This topic will review the scope of what must be done to stay in compliance with HIPAA regulations as individual access comes into focus both as a right that is vigorously enforced and as an area that is expected to see rules to codify what has been guidance. Keeping up with these complex changes is essential to compliance with HIPAA access requirements. The information will prepare practices for the impacts of likely rule changes in areas such as individual access, care coordination, accounting of disclosures, the Notice of Privacy Practices, cell phone communications, and new technologies. This material will help practices prepare for the various changes and avoid significant penalties (up to $1.7 million and beyond) for noncompliance.
