“Three Steps to Protect Patient Privacy”
Healthcare institutions are at greater risk of falling short on patient privacy requirements than ever before. Hospitals face severe penalties for patient privacy breaches, including financial, criminal, and harm to reputation. Complicating the matter are tighter regulations with the recent Omnibus Rule, increased audits from OCR, and the daily headlines that not all organizations entrusted with PHI protection are upholding their responsibility. Hospitals need to move beyond random manual audits that review a very small percentage of the access events. This paper introduces a simple three-step methodology — policy, procedures, and technology — to build a solid foundation to ensure patient privacy throughout your organization. (Iatric Systems)
