It has been almost 30 years since The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) was signed into law, which set the stage for developing privacy and security rules for healthcare providers to keep your protected health information (PHI) safe.

In this one-hour session, we will provide you with the knowledge and resources to ensure your PHI is only available to those who should have it.
This webinar will cover:

- How you can protect your PHI
- Who has access to your PHI
- What to do if your rights are being denied or your PHI is not protected
