We have discussed on this blog privacy provisions in HIPAA, especially considering new privacy regulation and extensions associated with the increased investment in EMR. Recent articles like this one at The Healthcare Blog demonstrate both importance and urgency of the issue.
We are very excited to offer you in co-operation with our partner FairWarning® a free, educational webinar exploring privacy regulation and its impact. The webinar was live on March 9th at 2pm Eastern / 11am PST, featuring Deven McGraw, Director of the Privacy Project at the Center for Democracy and Technology. On January 27th, 2009, Deven testified to the U.S. Senate Committee on the Judiciary regarding privacy in healthcare, and along with others played a pivotal role in finding a workable privacy balance in the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA of 2009). Deven is now able to share first-hand insights on the coming healthcare privacy and HIPAA regulatory environment.
If you missed the live event, you can download a pdf version of the presentation with very useful information.
