HIPAA Enforcement and Compliance Audits: What the auditors want and how to be ready before they call - Webinar By GlobalCompliancePanel

Overview: In this session we will discuss the HIPAA audit and enforcement processes and how they apply to covered entities and business associates.

We will explain the enforcement regulations and their recent changes that increase fines and create new penalty levels, including new penalties for willful neglect of compliance that begin at $10,000. We will discuss what information and documentation needs to be prepared in advance so that you can be ready for an audit without notice. Sample information request forms and questions asked at prior audits will be presented.

The session will also cover how to know if you may become the subject of an audit or enforcement action, and what you can do to help limit your exposure. We will discuss how most enforcement actions come about and what can be done to prevent incidents that lead to enforcement.

The HIPAA Privacy, Security, and Breach Notification regulations (and the recent changes to them) and how they will be audited will be explained. Documentation requirements for compliance will be explored and a framework of security policies necessary for compliance will be presented. Meeting any set of information security requirements always involves conducting a thorough risk analysis to make sure you haven't overlooked any weaknesses. We'll discuss what's involved and how it is the cornerstone of your compliance efforts.

The results of prior HHS audits (and their penalties) will be discussed, including recent actions involving multi-million dollar fines and settlements. A plan for attaining compliance will be presented. The steps to follow to prepare for an audit and respond to an audit request will be outlined.

Areas Covered in the Session: Fines and penalties for violations of the HIPAA regulations have been significantly increased and now include mandatory fines for willful negligence that begin at $10,000 minimum.

HIPAA Audits have been few and far between in the past, but that's now changing - the HHS will be auditing HIPAA covered entities and business associates even if there have been no complaints or problems reported.
