Categorized under Employee Benefits, Risk Management, Webinar.
M3 invites you to attend a series of HIPAA Webinars. Each one of these events requires registration.
The Webinars are by invitation only and there is no charge.
September 2010 HIPAA Webinars
The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1997 covers much more than just privacy, yet HIPAA Privacy tends to cause more confusion and take more time to administer than any other portion of the law. In addition, ARRA amendments to HIPAA Privacy and the Breach Notification Rules require that companies take another look at their current policies.
Our upcoming webinar series will cover these changes and the basics of the Privacy and Security Rules. You'll leave with the knowledge to implement effective policies and procedures for your organization. Depending on your experience with HIPAA Privacy and the design of your company's health plan, you may wish to sign up for one, two, or all three sessions. Session material will be available for download one day prior to each webinar.
Session 1: The Fundamentals of HIPAA Privacy & the Breach Notification Rule
The first part of this session will be a brief review of HIPAA Privacy basics. We will overview the background of HIPAA Privacy, how it applies to group health plans (including flexible spending accounts), what information is considered protected health information, and Business Associates. The second half of the session will be a discussion of the HIPAA Breach Notification Rule, which requires compliance by HIPAA covered entities.
This session will be appropriate for those new to HIPAA, plan sponsors of fully-insured plans, and self-funded plan sponsors that will need to comply with the new Breach Notification Rule.
