Fundamentals of Medical Records Law

Gain a better understanding of medical records and the laws and requirements that go along with managing them.

Healthcare is an ever-changing and complex area of law. Patient access to, and interest in, their medical record has created additional pressure on providers to maintain compliance with best practices and recent changes in the law. More than ever, providers and compliance officers need to balance the (at times conflicting) factors of patient privacy, coordination of care, and right of access. This webinar will review recent changes to HIPAA (Part 2), best practices, and the use of the medical record in litigation and professional licensure matters. The presenting panel will use real-life examples from their practice to demonstrate the importance of strong documentation practices and the big consequences of small mistakes.
