The Advisor
Monthly Compliance Communicator
Compliance matters. Our free monthly newsletter delivers the OSHA and HIPAA news you need to remain in compliance — right to your inbox.
October 2026 Issue
The October 2026 issue of The Advisor covers what healthcare employers need to do before OSHA’s Hazard Communication Standard deadline on November 20, 2026, including reviewing written programs, SDSs, labels, and training. It also explains why manufacturer Instructions for Use (IFUs)—not assumptions or habit—should guide the cleaning, disinfecting, and sterilizing of reusable medical and dental devices, and looks at potential HIPAA Privacy Rule changes from HHS that could affect care coordination and patient access rights.
