HIPAA established standards to protect patient privacy and the confidential handling of their health information. PHI includes a patient's demographics, medical treatments, and insurance information. Only qualified health professionals with patient consent can access a person's full medical records and history. Strict privacy rules help ensure patients' sensitive health details are kept private and not inappropriately shared with others. Violations of HIPAA privacy standards can result in penalties like job loss, fines, and imprisonment.
HIPAA Audit Implementation
HIPAA Audit Implementation discusses the need to implement HIPAA audits to ensure compliance. HIPAA establishes privacy and security provisions for protected health information. It requires covered entities like healthcare providers and their business associates to implement controls to secure patient data and mitigate the risk of breaches. Noncompliance can result in civil penalties up to $1.5 million per year or criminal penalties of up to 10 years in prison.
Annual HIPAA Training
This training module covers HIPAA privacy and security rules for protecting protected health information (PHI). It addresses recognizing situations where PHI could be mishandled, practical ways to protect privacy and security of sensitive information, and that employees will be held responsible for improperly handling PHI. The module covers forms of PHI, examples of PHI, HIPAA privacy and security rules, covered entities' duty to protect PHI, and consequences for violations.
Health IT Data Security – An Overview of Privacy, Compliance, and 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.

Novas diretrizes da OMS para os cuidados perinatais de mais qualidade
Novas diretrizes da OMS para os cuidados perinatais de mais qualidadeProf. Marcus Renato de Carvalho
Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

Overall life span (LS) was 1671.7±1721.6 days and cumulative 5YS reached 62.4%, 10 years – 50.4%, 20 years – 44.6%. 94 LCP lived more than 5 years without cancer (LS=2958.6±1723.6 days), 22 – more than 10 years (LS=5571±1841.8 days). 67 LCP died because of LC (LS=471.9±344 days). AT significantly improved 5YS (68% vs. 53.7%) (P=0.028 by log-rank test). Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: N0-N12, T3-4, blood cell circuit, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells-CC and blood cells subpopulations), LC cell dynamics, recalcification time, heparin tolerance, prothrombin index, protein, AT, procedure type (P=0.000-0.031). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and N0-12 (rank=1), thrombocytes/CC (rank=2), segmented neutrophils/CC (3), eosinophils/CC (4), erythrocytes/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), stick neutrophils/CC (8), leucocytes/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (error=0.000; area under ROC curve=1.0).
ABDOMINAL TRAUMA in pediatrics part one.
Abdominal trauma in pediatrics refers to injuries or damage to the abdominal organs in children. It can occur due to various causes such as falls, motor vehicle accidents, sports-related injuries, and physical abuse. Children are more vulnerable to abdominal trauma due to their unique anatomical and physiological characteristics. Signs and symptoms include abdominal pain, tenderness, distension, vomiting, and signs of shock. Diagnosis involves physical examination, imaging studies, and laboratory tests. Management depends on the severity and may involve conservative treatment or surgical intervention. Prevention is crucial in reducing the incidence of abdominal trauma in children.

- 1. HIPAA Privacy: HOW IT AFFECTS YOU !!! By: Brittany Koenig 1
- 2. Goals of Training • To increase your knowledge & understanding of what protected health information (PHI) is in this facility, and what threats may exist to its privacy and its security • To enhance your awareness of your role in helping this facility follow HIPAA rules • To provide information about to whom you can go with questions about privacy, and about security • To inform you about your reporting responsibilities when HIPAA violations occur • To alert you to the possible penalties for violation of HIPAA law for both you and this facility • To protect the confidentiality of our consumer's Protected Health Information (PHI) in support of one of our values -- dignity, self-worth and individual rights. It's the right thing to do! • To Understand that this same law also protects you as a consumer of health care. 2
- 3. What is HIPAA? • Portability: Protects and guarantees health insurance coverage when an employee changes job • Accountability: Protects health data integrity, confidentiality and availability • Reduces Fraud and Abuse • Makes fraud prosecution easier (Medicare/Medicaid) • Reduces Paperwork 3
- 4. WHY COMPLY WITH HIPAA ? • Avoid denied and or delayed reimbursements – DHHS agencies process claims bringing in more than $ 550 million in receipts annually. – Annual Medicaid disbursements totaling more than $4.6 billion. • May risk Accreditation. (e.g. Joint Commission on Accreditation on HealthCare Organizations: • Public relations and business risk issues • Benefit from long term healthcare cost reductions • Impose severe penalties for non-compliance 4
- 5. DEFINITION: PRIVACY Privacy is the right of an individual to keep his/her individual health information from being disclosed. 5
- 6. HIPAA Enforcement Continued • These penalties apply to oral, paper and electronic Protected Health Information (PHI). 6
- 7. QUESTIONS? • If you are ever in doubt, always ask your Supervisor or their designee! • Remember, that person is your first line of response to privacy questions. 7
- 8. Conclusion HIPAA - A Health Care Paradigm • Affects clearinghouses, patients. • Requires changes to business processes and applications, staffing plans, facilities and Information systems applications • Provides patients with rights • Shifts power in provider/consumer relationships • Introduces new legal liabilities • Conveys severe civil and criminal penalties payers, providers, employers, medical manufacturers, Pharmaceutical companies, employees 8
- 9. Conclusion Continued… HIPAA - is not going away • Healthcare industry wants standardization • Consumers want health information to be protected • HIPAA is not an option • HIPAA is doing business in the “New Millennium” • Implementation cost is short term • Operational benefit is long term 9
