WEBINAR DETAILS:  Mismanaged, misplaced, or missing medical and business records are more than a nuisance. They are a liability. You are required to preserve, protect, produce, and purge records, including PHI, EPHI, personally identifiable information (PII), and other business-critical information in compliance with HIPAA, federal legislation, state data breach notification laws, and e-discovery guidelines. Best practices call for strategic records management programs, complete with comprehensive records retention policy and procedures.

Failure to safeguard PHI and EPHI could lead to HIPAA investigations, financial penalties, and disgruntled patients. Mismanagement of business records, including PII and electronically stored information (ESI), could trigger costly lawsuits, damaged reputations, and decreased revenues. Attend this program to learn best practices-based strategies for effective records management. You’ll leave with a package of valuable tools, including a sample records retention policy, record retention guidelines, and an informative whitepaper to help your organization manage records, minimize risks, and maximize compliance.
