Attorneys, executives, business management and medical industry professionals
On July 14, 2010, the Department of Health and Human Services released ts proposed changes to HIPAA privacy, security, and enforcement rules in response to the HITECH legislation of last year. While a key purpose of the proposed rules is to extend deadlines for compliance, the proposed rules also make changes to existing requirements and work a significant extension of business associate agreements to subcontractors and signal increased use of sanctions by the Office of Civil Rights.
In this one-hour TeleBriefing, our distinguished panel of experts -- including an eminent healthcare attorney, a medical association general counsel, and a hospital compliance officer -- will address the implications of the new rules.
