The 2014 HIT Symposium will focus on Data Security: HIPAA Compliance and the Meaningful Use Data Security Requirement. Many ophthalmic practices grapple daily with privacy and data security issues. This symposium will help answer some of the most common questions practices may have about compliance and suggest corrective actions to take once a security breach has occurred.
The symposium will provide a better understanding of the meaningful use attestation data security requirement, advice on using the security risk analysis process to identify potential security problems to mitigate risks before they become liabilities, and tips on handling data security with the continuing advancement of mobile devices in the workplace.
A panel will present case studies of frequently occurring security situations, and provide the audience the opportunity to weigh in on the case study scenarios. The panel will then address the possible issues present in each case study, offer opinions on whether a security breach has occurred, and provide prevention techniques and solutions for each situation.
