Overview:
This 90-minute webinar gives you an excellent overview of the Omnibus rule changes. Learn what actions to take now to achieve HIPAA compliance with the new Omnibus Rule, to pass an audit or an investigation, and to avoid civil money penalties and criminal convictions.
Why Should You Attend:

The Omnibus Rule finalizes the modifications to the HIPAA Privacy Rule, Security Rule, and enforcement rules to implement many of the privacy, security, and enforcement provisions of the HITECH Act and to make other changes to the Rules, modifies the breach notification rule, and finalizes the modifications to the HIPAA Privacy Rule to strengthen privacy protections for genetic information.
Objectives of the Presentation:

• Discuss the Omnibus Rule modifications to the HIPAA Privacy Rule and how to comply with them
• Have you read the 563-page Omnibus (Mega) Rule? No?
• Do you have any idea what you need to do now to comply with it?
• Do you know what could happen to you if you are not in compliance with HIPAA and the Omnibus Rule changes? (Hint: The answer could involve as much as millions of dollars and a free trip to Leavenworth.)
