Patient confidentiality is very important in healthcare. Healthcare members of all capacity, are exposed to a multitude of information, and access to obtain information on many individuals. This presentation stresses those important factors as well as communicates the various ways we can protect PHI.
Health IT Data Security – An Overview of Privacy, Compliance, and Technology ...M2SYS Technology
Radical advancements in health IT development and implementation have pushed the issue of health data security to the forefront of the collective healthcare provider mindset as they attempt to strike a balance between patient access to electronic health record protected health information (PHI) and data protection. The fact that so many health IT vendors now have access to and possess protected health information necessitated shift changes in the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) of 1996 which was enacted to establish ground rules for the privacy protection of individually identifiable health information.
We invited Mac McMillan, Chair of the HIMSS Privacy and Security Task Force to discuss what these new changes are, define their parameters, the mission of the HIMSS PRivacy & Security Task Force, his definition of what “privacy” actually is, comments on new technology that are viable options for healthcare providers to implement as a way to protect access to sensitive patient data, and his thoughts on the increased adoption of PHI management applications such as Microsoft HealthVault.
Listen in to this podcast for more information on the latest health IT industry developments and regulations that govern PHI and for insight from Mac on why healthcare providers and third party vendors should pay close attention to compliance with recent HIPAA changes.

HIPAA stands for Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act. It acts as a national standard to protect sensitive patient health information from getting disclosed.

Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!

Better understanding HIPPA and our responsibility as Providers: Avoidance Techniques
1. Better Understanding HIPAA and Our
Responsibility as Providers
Avoidance Techniques
Employee Training
Ciera D Moore
2. Patient Confidentiality and Privacy
• Understanding the true meaning and
importance of Patient Confidentiality is
knowledge that has to be obtained from the
source of regulation
– HIPAA
3. HIPAA
• The information HIPAA Protects
– Protected and de-identified Health information
• HIPAA created and regulates the privacy rule
– This rule provides federal protection to patients
health information that is held by covered entities
and their business partners.
– Patient rights are important
– This rule allows for disclosure of information when
needed for patient care and treatment
4. How do we abide
• Consent is key to abiding by HIPAA regulations
• Taking a proactive approach to patient privacy
is key to abiding by HIPAA regulations
• Respecting patients wishes and following
them will help abide by HIPAA regulations
• Most importantly utilizing technology in a way
that we acknowledge the risk and proactively
avoid violation of patients privacy.
5. Avoidance Techniques
• Do not leave a workstation logged on to patient
information
• Do not repeat patient information when
unauthorized personal are around
• Utilize computer based filing in order to protect
patient information from people who may break
into paper files.
• Change passwords for provider logins in order to
avoid someone stealing your password and
accessing patient information.
6. Avoidance Techniques
• Set reminders utilizing 24 me to log out when
a session is complete
• Do not just jot down patient information on a
piece of paper.
• Be sure that the most protected patient
storing information system is utilized at all
times.
7. Conclusion
• HIPAA is very serious and our patients deserve
the best care possible therefore it is our duty
to protect their information to the best of our
abilities utilizing all lines of defense against
violating patient privacy and confidentiality.
