Protecting Patient Data and Preventing Data Breaches
Srini discusses the ins and outs of protecting patient data. It is no simple job to protect data in the healthcare sector. A data breach allows unauthorized individual access to confidential, sensitive, or protected information. HIPAA/HITECH compliance applies to Protected Health Information (PHI). If the business is already HIPAA compliant, there are many technical protections to secure patient data, bringing one step closer to complying with other cybersecurity and compliance standards. Srini covers how healthcare agencies can achieve these things.
HIPAA/HITECH Requirements and Security Risk Analysis
The HIPAA Privacy, Security, and Breach requirement is a mandate under the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (HITECH) Act. Likewise, the HIPAA Privacy Rule provides federal protections for Protected Health Information (PHI) held by health departments and gives patients an array of rights with respect to that information. Personnel involved in Public Health must have a grasp on disclosures of PHI permitted for patient care and other important purposes, along with other ways the regulations affect their job functions. This 50-minute webinar by Srini Kolathur and EHR 2.0 will focus on HIPAA/HITECH requirements for Public Health Departments and FQHCs.
