Get a complete understanding of HIPAA Phase 2 audits

With HIPAA Phase 2 audits underway, practice and business managers are on tenterhooks on the implementation part of this requirement. The biggest area of concern for these professionals is understanding ways of carrying out Phase 2 audits with a grasp of what their highest risks are for being fined.
Before the audits happen; practice managers, business managers and compliance offers need to get their HIPAA house completely in order. This preparation requires professional guidance, as any error at some or another part could lead to serious consequences. It is this guidance that a webinar from MentorHealth, a leading provider of professional trainings for the healthcare industry, will be offering.
Brian L Tuttle, who is a Certified Professional in Health IT (CPHIT), Certified HIPAA Professional (CHP) and Certified Business Resilience Auditor (CBRA) with over 15 years' experience in Health IT and Compliance Consulting, will be the speaker at this webinar. To gain complete understanding of what needs to be done to get the HIPAA Phase 2 audits right, register by just logging on to http://www.mentorhealth.com/control/w_product/~product_id=800830LIV....
Changes under the Omnibus Rule
At this session, Brian will also address major changes under the Omnibus Rule as it relates to Covered Entities and Business Associates, and any other applicable updates for 2016. The goal of imparting this learning is to clear the air about the many myths and misconceptions that exist in relation to this law and the do’s and don’ts of HIPAA.
A very important aspect of the HIPAA audits is an understanding of the highest risk factors for being sued for wrongful disclosures of PHI and the manner in which patients are now using state laws to sue for wrongful disclosures. This area will be covered too, at this webinar.
This webinar will offer complete understanding of the changes taking place at Health and Human Services (HHS) with regard to enforcement of HIPAA and how to avoid audit risks as well as being sued by individuals who have had their PHI wrongfully disclosed due to bad IT or internal administrative practices.
Brian will cover the following areas at this session:
Updates for 2016
Requirements of Compliance Officers
Audit Process
What can cause an audit
How to avoid audit
What to do in the event of an audit
How to speak and deal with Federal auditors
