Would your hospital pass a HIPAA audit? Presenters of a HIMSS Virtual Conference and Expo education session will ask this question on June 9, at 1:00 PM CST.
"The key points will be focused on what the auditors will be looking for and where health care institutions can focus limited resources on how best to remediate their compliance risks," said Chris Paidhrin, security compliance officer of Southwest Washington Medical Center in Vancouver, Wash., and leader of the session. "I hope to provide simple checklists and resources for those who do not have mature compliance programs, and a simplified methodology for mapping risk, maturity and compliance."
Paidhrin hopes attendees of "Would Your Hospital Pass a HIPAA Audit?" will benefit from discussions of topics including:
- The impact of the HITECH Act on HIPAA audits;
- The best practices for compliance programs and;
- How identity management improves compliance and overall provider security.
