Understanding Privacy Protections for Reproductive Health Information and Compliance Implications.

Live Webinar: Understanding Privacy Protections for Reproductive Health Information and Compliance Implications

$20.00

This webinar explores significant updates to HIPAA compliance responsibilities following the 2024 HHS guidance on reproductive health care privacy. Designed for compliance officers, healthcare administrators, and privacy professionals, the session provides a comprehensive breakdown of the updated federal protections for reproductive health information, especially considering evolving state laws. Participants will gain clarity on when reproductive health info can and cannot be disclosed, the new attestation requirements, and best practices for updating organizational policies, procedures, and training to meet compliance standards.

The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) released new guidance in 2024 to clarify the privacy rights of individuals under HIPAA. This webinar provides attendees with:

  • A clear understanding of how reproductive health care is defined and protected under HIPAA
  • An overview of new restrictions on the use and disclosure of reproductive health PHI, particularly related to law enforcement and legal proceedings
  • The role of attestation forms in compliance and when they are required
  • Case scenarios to distinguish between permitted and prohibited disclosures
  • Actionable steps for updating policies, business associate agreements, and workforce training
  • Insights into the presumption of lawfulness, enforcement expectations, and how to navigate conflicting state laws

 

By the end of the webinar, participants will be equipped to implement changes that uphold patient privacy and ensure organizational compliance with federal mandates.

This course is good for 1 CEU.

On-Site Consulting Services Available

Along with your on-site full service program, you’ll receive all the compliance components you need to be OSHA and HIPAA compliant. You have access to online training for new hires or those that missed any on-site training. 

What to expect when we visit: Your TMC consultant will go through your facility and do a thorough facility audit with an electronic report, go over the Compliance manual, and provide on-site training. 

For our OSHA clients, we provide you with a complimentary spill kit, secondary labels, and meet with your Safety Officer and review their duties.

For HIPAA clients, your facility audit will identify any privacy and security concerns, we’ll provide you with a risk analysis report for your facility, and we’ll meet with your Privacy/Security Officer to review their duties. 

Whether you choose us for OSHA, HIPAA, or both, we will work with you to achieve compliance to create a long-lasting relationship rather than just providing a how-to guide leaving you to do all the work. Our goal is to be your primary resource for HIPAA, OSHA, and Infection Control compliance.
