The Key to Addressing Regulatory Compliance While Improving your Financial Position through Effective Health Information Management

Date: Wednesday, January 20, 2010
Time: 2 p.m. Eastern / 11 a.m. Pacific
Duration: 1 Hour

Here's a brief description:

Today's healthcare environment presents a constant storm of challenges. Recent regulatory changes and the privacy and security measures enacted as part of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) of 2009 have presented a new set of challenges that providers must comply with, which often become a lower priority when it comes to allocating spending in uncertain economic times. These measures are critical in achieving widespread HIT adoption.

As heightened regulations with stiffened penalties go into effect, it is important that providers address privacy and security measures now - to avoid the costs later. These costs not only come in the form of steep financial penalties, but also require resource dedication, which can disrupt processes and cause further negative impact to your bottom line.

Attend this Web seminar on January 20, and you will:

• Understand the scope of the new privacy and security measures enacted with the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) of 2009 and how this is affecting Health Information Management.
• Learn how heightened HIPAA enforcement, also enacted through ARRA, is affecting Health Information Management in provider organizations like yours and what potential financial impact these stiffened penalties can have on your organization.
• Develop a comprehensive knowledge of how process improvement in Health Information Management can advance your economic position to enable success in the current economic environment.
• Discover how technology can bring value to your organization through enabling regulatory compliance and streamlining processes.
