HIPAA compliance for Business Associates- The value of compliance, how to acq...
HIPAA compliance for Business Associates has become critical as you deal with medical professionals. During this webinar we will explain the law and what Business Associates need to know and do and how to differentiate your firm to acquire new and maintain current clients.

HIPAA compliance tuneup 2016
Healthcare IT thought leadership and practice managers continually seek ways to foster a culture of alertness when it comes to HIPAA compliance. They have the dual challenge of staying on the right side of federal regulators and stopping would-be hackers. This is especially true given the potential impact a data breach can have on their organization’s reputation and bottom line. By reflecting on 2015, it becomes clear that covered entities and business associates alike will continue to prepare to mitigate the threat of cyber-attacks and the planned ramp up of OCR Phase 2 Audits.
HIPAA compliance Tune-up for 2016 is the topic of this webinar – which will be focused on mitigation strategies Covered Entities and BA’s alike can take to minimize the risk of data breach or actions prompting an OCR Audit.
How to safeguard ePHIi in the cloud
The HIPAA Security Rule sets out strict guidelines for Covered Entities to maintain electronic records of their protected health information.
Fortunately, Omnibus allows Covered Entities to share access to their ePHI to third-party experts called Business Associates, and specifically identifies cloud service providers as viable options. This webinar will review how to leverage the cloud to safeguard your organization’s ePHI, including:
· What HIPAA requires.
· How to the assess your current protection level.
· Bridging the gap between your protection level and HIPAA requirements

Vendors that provide services to health care providers and health insurers are under increasing pressure to protect confidential patient/member information and certify compliance with HIPAA. These “business associates” must comply with numerous data privacy and security requirements under HIPAA and state law, and their ability to do so is often a key factor health care companies use when selecting a vendor. To stand out and make the sale, business associates need to be able to demonstrate robust HIPAA compliance and sufficient policies, procedures and protocols to protect their client’s sensitive data. This webinar will address what business associates need to do to comply with HIPAA and how to differentiate your organization from the competition using HIPAA compliance.
Presenter: William J. Roberts, Shipman & Goodwin LLP

Since Omnibus started in 2013 Business Associates (BA) have scrambled to understand and adhere to the Federal Regulation. Though Omnibus alone was a reason for Business Associates to become compliant many realized that compliance could help differentiate their offerings. Helping the company retain and acquire new clients. Compliance is helping many BA’s open new revenue streams while increasing brand stickiness.
With the plethora of non-compliant Business Associates, Covered Entities are realizing that the best option for them is to choose a BA that is compliant to reduce their risk.
HIPAA 101- What all Doctors NEED to know
Have you ever felt confused by HIPAA’s complex regulations? Even if you are well versed in the laws, there are still many headache inducing intricacies. In this webinar, an experienced HIPAA auditor will highlight the basics of HIPAA, its regulations, what you need to know about it, and how it may affect you, especially with a new wave of HHS audits looming. The webinar is designed for HIPAA novices and experts alike, and all questions are encouraged in this interactive session.
HIPAA Compliance and Non-Business Associate Vendors - Strategies and Best Pra...
HIPAA covered entities (including health care providers and health plans) and their business associates must be mindful of HIPAA compliance when working with other entities even when that other entity is not a business associate. Often, vendors have access to an organization’s premises or information systems which may result in incidental access to protected health information (PHI). For example, a cleaning service may have access to a medical records room or an IT support vendor may have remote access to employee workstations. While such incidental access to PHI does not make the vendor a business associate, an organization must ensure that its PHI is protected and that it complies with HIPAA. This webinar will address:
· Strategies for dealing with non-business associate vendors;
· Best practices to protect your organization; and
· Development of policies and model contract language.
How to prepare for OCR's upcoming phase 2 audits
Covered entities and business associates are on their toes awaiting the Phase 2 Audits from OCR.

HIPAA Compliance and Electronic Protected Health Information: Ignorance is no...
How many electronic devices used in your organization store electronic Protected Health Information (ePHI)? If you work in a healthcare setting, this is not easily answered. While there has been considerable attention paid to ePHI stored on computers and networked servers, and recent attention given to portable devices like tablets and cell phones, one class of ePHI bearing technology remains rather mysterious – medical devices. This webinar shines a light on medical device data storage and introduces ePHI breach risks in direct patient care, clinical lab, and medical imaging settings. A brief case study for each setting will be presented.
How to Effectively Negotiate a Business Associate Agreement: What’s Importan...
At some point, nearly all HIPAA covered entities and business associates must enter into business associate agreements (BAAs). Far too often though, entities commit one of two errors when doing so - they either sign a BAA “as is” without careful consideration of its terms or they negotiate each and every item in the agreement. The first error may result in significant costs and liability, and the second wastes time and money. This webinar will address the terms and conditions of BAAs that require your attention, and which ones you shouldn’t lose any sleep over. The webinar will give both covered entities and business associates the tools they need to identify and address BAA risks, while protecting their business and saving time and money.
Shipman & Goodwin LLP attorneys have negotiated thousands of BAAs for small providers, Fortune 500 companies and everyone in between.
Meaningful Use vs HIPAA
So you finally completed the implementation of your EHR, now you are HIPAA compliant right? Sadly this is far from truth. Meaningful Use and HIPAA though containing some of the same requirements (Core Measure 9 and 15) are far from the same. Learn in this webinar the differences in HITECH Meaningful Use and HIPAA and how to help your organization satisfy both.
How to Increase Your Profits Using Patient Payments on File, Recurring and On...
With the rise of High Deductible Insurance Plans and increased practice revenue coming directly from your patient receivables, it is extremely important for you to manage your patient receivables with a different mindset. Find out new ways to utilize billing options to reduce collection costs, increase profits and shorten the revenue cycle.
CardChoice International is the trusted advisor to both the American Medical Billing Association and the Practice Management Institute, and has partnered with healthcare organizations, to educate their members on the best methods for revenue cycle management.
Why a Risk Assessment is NOT Enough for HIPAA Compliance
A common misconception is that “A risk assessment makes me HIPAA compliant” Sadly this thought can cost your practice more than taking no action at all. A risk assessment is a requirement for HITECH under Meaningful Use Core Measure 15, but it does NOT make you HIPAA compliant. Furthermore it can enter you into the section of willful neglect and open your organization into the next level of fines.
Join industry experts to find out how you achieve Meaningful Use, HITECH and HIPAA compliance while protecting your practice. Don’t miss this webinar, it could be the biggest message you receive all year!

Is Your EHR Safe? New Technologies for Auditing
U.S. legislation such as the Affordable Care Act, HIPAA and HITECH outline rules governing the appropriate use of personal health information (PHI). Unfortunately, current technologies do not adequately monitor PHI use. In particular, while electronic medical records (EMR) systems maintain detailed audit logs that record each access to PHI, the logs contain too many accesses for compliance officers to practically monitor, putting PHI at risk. In this talk I will present the explanation-based auditing system, which aims to filter appropriate accesses from the audit log so compliance officers can focus their efforts on suspicious behavior. The underlying premise of the system is that most appropriate accesses to medical records occur for valid clinical or operational reasons in the process of treating a patient, while inappropriate accesses do not. I will discuss how explanations for accesses (1) capture these clinical and operational reasons, (2) can be mined directly from the EMR database, (3) can be enhanced by filling-in frequently missing types of data, and (4) can drastically reduce the auditing burden.

Medical Technology Tackles New Health Care Demand - Research Report - March 2...
M Capital Group (“MCG”) predicts that with, against, despite, and even without the global pandemic, the medical technology (MedTech) industry shows signs of continuous healthy growth, driven by smaller, faster, and cheaper devices, growing demand for home-based applications, technological innovation, strategic acquisitions, investments, and SPAC listings. MCG predicts that this should reflects itself in annual growth of over 6%, well beyond 2028.
According to Chris Mouchabhani, Managing Partner at M Capital Group, “Despite all economic scenarios that one may consider, beyond overall economic shocks, medical technology should remain one of the most promising and robust sectors over the short to medium term and well beyond 2028.”
There is a movement towards home-based care for the elderly, next generation scanning and MRI devices, wearable technology, artificial intelligence incorporation, and online connectivity. Experts also see a focus on predictive, preventive, personalized, participatory, and precision medicine, with rising levels of integration of home care and technological innovation.
The average cost of treatment has been rising across the board, creating additional financial burdens to governments, healthcare providers and insurance companies. According to MCG, cost-per-inpatient-stay in the United States alone rose on average annually by over 13% between 2014 to 2021, leading MedTech to focus research efforts on optimized medical equipment at lower price points, whilst emphasizing portability and ease of use. Namely, 46% of the 1,008 medical technology companies in the 2021 MedTech Innovator (“MTI”) database are focusing on prevention, wellness, detection, or diagnosis, signaling a clear push for preventive care to also tackle costs.
In addition, there has also been a lasting impact on consumer and medical demand for home care, supported by the pandemic. Lockdowns, closure of care facilities, and healthcare systems subjected to capacity pressure, accelerated demand away from traditional inpatient care. Now, outpatient care solutions are driving industry production, with nearly 70% of recent diagnostics start-up companies producing products in areas such as ambulatory clinics, at-home care, and self-administered diagnostics.

BOWEL ELIMINATION BY ANUSHRI SRIVASTAVA.pptx
Defecation
Normal defecation begins with movement in the left colon, moving stool toward the anus. When stool reaches the rectum, the distention causes relaxation of the internal sphincter and an awareness of the need to defecate. At the time of defecation, the external sphincter relaxes, and abdominal muscles contract, increasing intrarectal pressure and forcing the stool out
The Valsalva maneuver exerts pressure to expel faeces through a voluntary contraction of the abdominal muscles while maintaining forced expiration against a closed airway. Patients with cardiovascular disease, glaucoma, increased intracranial pressure, or a new surgical wound are at greater risk for cardiac dysrhythmias and elevated blood pressure with the Valsalva maneuver and need to avoid straining to pass the stool.
Normal defecation is painless, resulting in passage of soft, formed stool
CONSTIPATION
Constipation is a symptom, not a disease. Improper diet, reduced fluid intake, lack of exercise, and certain medications can cause constipation. For example, patients receiving opiates for pain after surgery often require a stool softener or laxative to prevent constipation. The signs of constipation include infrequent bowel movements (less than every 3 days), difficulty passing stools, excessive straining, inability to defecate at will, and hard feaces
IMPACTION
Fecal impaction results from unrelieved constipation. It is a collection of hardened feces wedged in the rectum that a person cannot expel. In cases of severe impaction the mass extends up into the sigmoid colon.
DIARRHEA
Diarrhea is an increase in the number of stools and the passage of liquid, unformed feces. It is associated with disorders affecting digestion, absorption, and secretion in the GI tract. Intestinal contents pass through the small and large intestine too quickly to allow for the usual absorption of fluid and nutrients. Irritation within the colon results in increased mucus secretion. As a result, feces become watery, and the patient is unable to control the urge to defecate. Normally an anal bag is safe and effective in long-term treatment of patients with fecal incontinence at home, in hospice, or in the hospital. Fecal incontinence is expensive and a potentially dangerous condition in terms of contamination and risk of skin ulceration
HEMORRHOIDS
Hemorrhoids are dilated, engorged veins in the lining of the rectum. They are either external or internal.
FLATULENCE
As gas accumulates in the lumen of the intestines, the bowel wall stretches and distends (flatulence). It is a common cause of abdominal fullness, pain, and cramping. Normally intestinal gas escapes through the mouth (belching) or the anus (passing of flatus)
FECAL INCONTINENCE
Fecal incontinence is the inability to control passage of feces and gas from the anus. Incontinence harms a patient’s body image
