Covered entities will be required to make notifications of certain HITECH security breaches to the affected individuals, newspaper and media outlets in the state as well as the U.S. Secretary of Health & Human Services. Penalties will be assessed starting February 2010. Learn how to protect your hospital by putting a plan into action today!  The workshop will cover:

• Breach notification and requirements for business associates
• Implementation plan for compliance
• Case scenarios of how the requirements can impact hospital operations, including what steps can be taken to prevent or mitigate risk

You can prevent your hospital from falling behind the trend toward health information exchange. Learn what you need to do to be compliant with this new regulatory requirement. This session is specifically designed for CIOs and compliance, security and privacy officers as well as in-house legal counsel.
