Two Day HIPAA Compliance for Small Healthcare Providers Seminar (Boston, MA, United States – November 16-17, 2017) – Research and Markets

Business Wire

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- The "HIPAA Compliance for Small Healthcare Providers" conference has been added to Research and Markets' offering.

Being in compliance with HIPAA involves not only ensuring that you provide the appropriate patient rights and controls on your uses and disclosures of Protected Health Information, but that you also have the proper policies and procedures in place. If audited or the subject of a compliance review, you will be required to show the government you have all the necessary documentation in place for safeguarding patient Protected Health Information and indicate how you addressed all required security safeguards. This starts with the fundamentals of a HIPAA compliance program.

If your small healthcare practice needs to understand how to put a HIPAA compliance program in place or make sure the current program is adequate and can withstand government scrutiny, please join us for this informative and interactive Two-day training course.

Why You Should Attend?

This seminar is specially designed for small healthcare providers that struggle with meeting HIPAA compliance requirements. Regardless of the size of a practice or the number of patients, the focus of this seminar is on making sure that organizations are meeting all of the HIPAA, HITECH, and Omnibus Rules. Organizations need to fully understand the requirements of a compliance program and how to implement one.

Attendees will leave the course clearly understanding all of the requirements for a comprehensive HIPAA compliance program and what steps need to be taken to mitigate risk.
