You’re Invited: Tips For Surviving A HIPAA Audit

Celebrate Data Privacy Day!  On Wednesday January 28^th, Mintz Levin's Dianne Bourque, will be presenting a webinar on how to survive a HIPAA audit. 

With the New Year in fullswing, the HHS Office of Civil Rights ("OCR") is resuming its random audit program to assess compliance with HIPAA privacy, security and breach notification rules.  While Phase I of the OCR audit program involved on-site visits, OCR will conduct Phase II audits by performing desk review of documentation.  Findings during a Phase II audit can lead to enforcement and failure to comply can lead to the imposition of civil monetary penalties.

During this webinar, Dianne will discuss lessons learned from Phase I of the audit program and how best to incorporate those lessons into Phase II preparations.  She will also discuss how to identify and eliminate compliance gaps, in case you are chosen for an audit.
