This show will continue to explore what you should expect from an OCR audit. We will conclude our review of the HIPAA Privacy Rule and start reviewing what to expect from a HIPAA Security Rule audit. Contrary to popular belief, audits are not these mystical "gotcha" exercises, but rather a methodical walkthrough of the following: 1) the HIPAA Privacy Rule; 2) the HIPAA Security Rule; and 3) the HITECH Breach Notification Rule.

This show will explored what you should expect from an OCR audit, starting with the HIPAA Privacy Rule (PR). The next few shows will continue with the PR. Contrary to popular belief, audits are not these mystical "gotcha" exercises, but rather a methodical walkthrough of the following: 1) the HIPAA Privacy Rule; 2) the HIPAA Security Rule; and 3) the HITECH Breach Notification Rule.

Auditors, by definition, have to deal with the "reality on the ground" which are the pertinent statutes and regulations. There are systematic ways to attack each of the Rules identified above and we will review those with our audience. We will also review strategies that can help you avoid a finding of "willful neglect."

May 2012

The featured article this month is entitled Healthcare and the Cloud Revisited: it's your data, how do you protect it?.

This article explores how to protect your PHI when moving to the Cloud. It turns out that protecting your PHI on the Cloud is not only fraught with technical complexity, but with a significant amount of legal complexity as well.

We are concerned that many covered entities do not possess either the technical or legal wherewithal to adequately deal with this issue. As always, it's our mission to provide our readers "news you can use." Our objective in this article is to get you "up the curve" so that you can, at a minimum, begin to ask the right questions.

Enjoy!
