The shift to electronic records involves more than converting paper files to electronic files. While the payoffs may be great so are the risks if organizations do not take into account a host of other issues that go along with the power of electronic information. This module provides crucial insights into managing the ongoing transition to electronic health and medical records and identifies the new vulnerabilities and pressure points that are emerging and strategies for addressing them.

Strategic Planning for Managing EMRs, EHRs and PHRs

It also provides important information on what new legal requirements you may have to meet in producing records in court as well as good advice on what questions to ask of electronic records vendors and integrating the system throughout your organization.
Faculty: John Christiansen and Chris Apgar

Protecting Patient Data at the Front Door:  Vetting Prospective Employees for HIPAA and Other Data Protection Laws

This seminar features a hands-on faculty providing practical advice on what you can and cannot do in evaluating applicants for positions that grant access to medical and health data.
Faculty: John Parmigiani, Christopher Berner, Esq., Barry J. Nadell
