Do you have formal email and texting rules? Are they up to date?

Hospices and home care companies are allowed to communicate with and about patients via email and text, provided HIPAA’s privacy and security rules are followed. Noncompliance can result in regulatory fines, compromised electronic protected health information (ePHI), lawsuits, and lost revenues. Are you confident your organization is lawfully using email and text messages to communicate with patients and peers in the office and from home? Do you manage confidential and sensitive information in compliance with HIPAA’s content rules and state record-retention laws? Have you implemented policies, procedures, and training to ensure proper handling of email and text messages by employees and business associates? This session will provide a comprehensive look at email and texting risks, rules, and best practices.
