Breakout session #1 10am -12pm
Prevent or survive a HIPAA investigation or compliance audit!
We are in the profession of prevention, so, we understand how much
easier it is to prevent problems than deal with consequences!
So, what has to be done to prevent compliance investigations or audits?
How do you know if what you are doing is enough?
…. And what do you absolutely need to do (and NOT DO) if you are
notified you are under investigation or being audited?
This seminar will be structured so that you can make decisions
regarding your office needs to protect your hard – earned practice.
Key protections you will master:
● What to say (and what NOT TO SAY) if you ever notified you are
under investigation or audit.
● When you do and don’t need an attorney.
● How to know if your HIPAA program is adequate.
● What needs to be done to prevent a Ransomware attack that can close
your office and get you fined by the government for a HIPAA violation.
This is the greatest NEW threat to chiropractors (there will be a video
interview with a small chiropractic practice owner, shown at this event,
regarding their experience with a Ransomware attack)
● How to protect against the violations the government is actually
pursuing. The latest information, directly from the government Cyber
security and HIPAA symposium regarding how people get caught, the
type fines they face and how to protect your practice – could you be
next?
● How a simple mistake can turn into a federal investigation (a short TV
CHIROPRACTIC EXPOSE news story, about a chiropractors’ ‘mistake’,
will be shown at the event)
● Why patient HIPAA complaints (and disgruntled employee
complaints) have increased over 500% over the past few years,
resulting in a massive increase in fines etc..
● How to perform a risk analysis and ISAR's- Washington DC states if
you don't have these you have no HIPAA program AT ALL and therefore
face probable minimum ‘willful neglect fines’ of $59,255.00 to 1.5
million!
