So You Signed a BAA: Are You Ready for HIPAA Fines?
HIPAA Compliance for the Business Associate
We’re hosting this breakfast seminar on “HIPAA Compliance for the Business Associate” at our office on Wednesday, October 23 and we’d love to see you there.
Did you know HIPAA regulations extend beyond the healthcare providers to businesses that support those healthcare providers? Healthcare providers are called ‘Covered Entities’ by the government and many of the businesses that support those Covered Entities are known as Business Associates. If you are a Business Associate, then you are bound by the same compliance requirements as a Covered Entity. And, if you are not in compliance, you could face fines and other penalties.
Join Mike Jennings and BEI for an informational breakfast on how to be a compliant Business Associate. Mike will help you determine if you qualify as a Business Associate, immediate first steps you should take to protect your business and help you position yourself as a trusted Business Associate as you grow your business.
BEI has been providing IT support and a HIPAA compliance program to physician practices since 2010, so we have lots of experience and advice to share. This event has occurred – if you would like to receive a copy of the information click here.
