Patients Suing Under HIPAA

This training program will be addressing major changes under the Omnibus Rule which give patients the right to sue under state law citing HIPAA. There are enormous issues and risks for covered entities and business associates under Omnibus.

Why Should You Attend:

Several states have already set precedence for giving their citizens the right to sue under HIPAA. The webinar instructor will speak on specific incidences from over 17 years’ experience in working as an outsourced compliance, expert witness on HIPAA cases, and thoroughly explain how patients are now able to get cash remedies for wrongful disclosures of private health information. More importantly, the course will show participants how to limit those risks by simply taking proactive steps and utilizing best practices.

The federal government is encouraging states to adopt laws to remedy patients for wrongful disclosures. What does this mean for covered entities and business associates? Why should you be concerned?

This webinar will address these concerns and discuss court cases that are changing the landscape of HIPAA and patient’s ability to sue utilizing state laws.
