Fall Seminar 2013


Did You Miss the HIPAA Omnibus?


PROTECTING PATIENT PRIVACY AND PATIENT SAFETY Penalties • Fines • Audits


They can happen to you if you don’t comply with the new HIPAA Omnibus Rule, a rule that strengthens the privacy protections established by HIPAA.


With this new rule, you now face even more scrutiny by the federal government as well as new administrative burdens. That’s why it’s imperative to evaluate and revise your practice’s compliance strategy.


You must also understand when to share patient information, with whom, and under what circumstances. Over- protection of privacy can lead to treatment errors, patient injuries, and malpractice claims.


TMLT’s 2.5-hour CME seminar will provide easy-to-follow guidelines for compliance with HIPAA, including the Omnibus additions. We will also discuss the balance between patient privacy and safety.


TMLT policyholders who complete this program will earn a 3% discount (maximum $1,000) that will be applied to their next eligible policy period.
