I panicked and thought I was doing something wrong related to HIPAA.
Have you EVER had that panicky HIPAA feeling, ughhh.... or the one where you thought you were doing really well with your HIPAA compliance and realized there is so much more!
This weird thing happened... I would get a new client and then shortly after when I logged on to Facebook on the right side they were being suggested as a friend. Eek!
I thought I was doing what I needed to do regarding HIPAA, but I got a little freaked out which led my assistant and me learning more about the tech side of HIPAA compliance.
There is so much to know, learn and digest. We were literally looking into stuff for months.
All that panic and worry led me to a podcast with Joe Sanok and Roy Huggins, therapist, tech guy, previous web developer and leading authority on tech and ethics for therapists.
I remember listening to it and my worries began to melt away. Roy made so much sense PLUS he was funny and totally relatable.
I was so happy I found that podcast then of course I thought… we need Roy on our podcast! We chatted "HIPAA Peace of Mind" with Roy Huggins and Liath Dalton while they were hanging out in a vault, true story. Roy answered YOUR questions about:
- What are the basics of HIPAA compliance?
- What are the rules - legal vs. best practices today?
- What is the difference between privacy and security?)
- What do you have to do to become fully HIPAA compliant?
- And MUCH MORE
Listen to the podcast to learn a TON about HIPAA and also why they were in a vault. This is a 2 parter so don’t forget to come back NEXT week for Part 2.
