OVERVIEW
HIPAA regulations require the preparation and implementation of a disaster recovery plan to ensure that the health care organization continues providing health care services and protect the security and privacy of a patient’s protected health information.
WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND
The need for a business continuation plan – or disaster plan – starts with the requirements stated in the HIPAA regulations and continues to the ability of the health care organization to sustain itself in the event of a significant event. The disaster plan provides a road map for what to do if a major event occurs and results in a significant interruption in the ability of the health care organization to continue to provide its services. This includes not only being able to continue serving patients, but the ability of the health care to maintain its financial stability and protect the patients’ protected health care information. This webinar provides the basis for an organization to develop and test its disaster recovery planning.
AREAS COVERED
• What to do immediately in an emergency
• How to determine what are the most important tasks to perform
• What are risks, threats and vulnerabilities and how to assess those issues for your health care organziation
• How to determine the most important tasks to perform first
• How to determine if the disaster plan needs to be activated
• How to communicate with management and staff, patients, vendors
• Managing the transition to a backup operation
• IT issues in disaster recovery
• HIPAA compliance issues
• Restoring the operation to the original environment
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
Webinar participants will learn how to prepare and implement disaster recovery plans to ensure the health care organization’s both HIPAA compliance and its ability to maintain its services if a significant event occurs.
WHO WILL BENEFIT
Anyone involved in providing health care services, either directly or indirectly. This includes health care organization ownership and senior management, office management, business associates, physicians, ancillary services organizations (pharmacies, labs, radiology).
