1. Performing an OCR HIPAA Audit
This training on HIPAA compliance will teach the attendees best practices for conducting a self
audit of HIPAA controls in alignment with the Office of Civil Rights (OCR) recently released audit
mandate. Learn how to prepare and conduct an audit to ensure compliance with HIPAA and
HITECH.
Why Should You Attend:
To aid healthcare providers and their business associates with ensuring data privacy and
security, the Office for Civil Rights for the Department of Health and Human Services (OCR) has
released an audit program to assess compliance. OCR is the division of the federal government
tasked with enforcing the HIPAA and HITECH regulations. In addition to expanding the scope
and requirements of HIPAA, the HITECH Act also requires OCR to perform periodic audits of
covered entities and business associates. The OCR Audit Protocol developed as a result of this
mandate and provides a set of instructions for each covered entity and business associate to
measure their own compliance and address any risks and vulnerabilities.
This webinar will help attendees understand the internal controls required for HIPAA
compliance and provide a roadmap to conduct an internal audit using the OCR HIPAA Audit
protocol.
