In this on-demand webinar, Virtru's Sam Windfield sits down with Jason Karn (Total HIPAA), and Michael Hensley (Modern Health) to discuss the essential elements of HIPAA compliance and data security. The session emphasizes that true data protection goes beyond merely meeting regulatory requirements. It’s about implementing robust security measures like encryption and granular access controls, which are critical for safeguarding sensitive health information.
A key focus of the discussion was the importance of Business Associate Agreements (BAAs). While BAAs are vital for compliance, signing one isn’t enough. Organizations must also conduct regular risk assessments and take active responsibility for their data security.
The experts also highlighted that HIPAA compliance is an ongoing process, requiring regular audits, risk assessments, and updates to security protocols. They explored the need for user-friendly security solutions to enable secure data sharing while maintaining compliance, as well as the importance of having visibility and control over data access to ensure timely responses to potential breaches.
Watch the full webinar to gain valuable insights into how you can strengthen your HIPAA compliance strategy and enhance the security of your healthcare data, while learning from peers that face the same challenges you do.
