Medical offices have powerful new tools available to them for reaching out to their patients for purposes such as reminders and the announcement of new services, and to describe products and services that patients could be interested in. Texting and e-mail offer new opportunitìes for communication that patients are coming to expect and providers are eager to use. However, there are limitations on the use of protected health information (PHI) for continuation of care versus marketing purposes, and limitations under other laws such as the Telephone Consumer Protection Act of 1991 (TCPA), the CAN-SPAM Act that limit contacting patients on their cell phones, via texts, or email.

There are times when it is useful and/or important to share health information. However, it is also important to protèct the identity of the individuals whose information is involved. Such circumstances call for de-identification of PHI, which is not an easy process. Sometimes, for research purposes, a partially de-identified Limited Data Set may be needed. De-identification must be considered carefully, especially since HIPAA requirements for de-identification do not allow the use of patient initials to “de-identify” information.

HIPAA has been a law for more than twenty years now, and the rules in place call for extensive policies and procedures to ensure compliance with the HIPAA Security Rule. However, not all entities have done the work necessary to conduct an accurate and thorough assessment of the risks to the security of PHI, and to develop and implement their security policies and procedures. Even if they have all the best practices in place, entities must have the supporting policies and procedures to ensure consistency in service and compliance with the law, and they need to be aware of the risks they face and be ready to respond to changes in the risk landscape.

This 2018 HIPAA Compliance Virtual Boot Camp with expert Jim Sheldon-Dean will focus on these three areas of HIPAA compliance that all healthcare entities must address today or face serious consequences.
