Attorneys to provide health care compliance update online

Health care providers can learn about the latest states to enact consumer privacy & data protection laws related to Personally Identifiable Information (PII) and Protected Health Information (PHI) and the status of proposed federal privacy legislation and more during a free webinar presented by the Butzel Health Care Industry Group from 9 to 10 a.m. on Thursday, May 11.

The presentation, “Compliance Update: The end of COVID and the Increase in Cyber Security for Health Care and Human Resources Professionals.” will address reporting obligations, current threats, and steps to take to avoid becoming a victim.

Presenters also will provide a “crash course” in how the expiration of the COVID-19 emergency declarations will impact group health plans. In addition, webinar participants will get an update on how the Federal government push for greater transparency in health benefits is proceeding.
