- This HIPAA compliance training will focus on the Breach Notification Rules including the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act (GINA). Learn how to ensure compliance with data breach reporting requirements to avoid penalties.
Why Should You Attend:
New privacy and security regulations under HIPAA, reflecting the HITECH Act and GINA, are now effective and require all covered entities and business associates to have up-to-date policies and procedures, privacy notices, business associate agreements and conduct training.
The regulations have resulted in increased penalties for data breaches that could be a financial disaster for some organizations. Covered entities not only have to be in compliance themselves, they also need to make sure that their business associates are in compliance. Business associates and their subcontractors are now subject to rules that previously only applied to covered entities.
This webinar will explain HIPAA’s Breach Notification Rules including the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act (GINA).
