HIPAA Fundraising: What you Need to Know, What you Need to Do
Overview:
In 2013, The US Department of Health and Human Services made major changes to rules implementing The Health Insurance and Portability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) and Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act of 2003 (HITECH).
Among the many areas impacted by these rules (billing, marketing, research, IT security, etc.) is fund raising.
The amendments significantly modify the methods and practice that hospitals, their institutionally related foundations, and other healthcare charities may or must employ when using ANY patient or client information for fund raising.
The webinar will cover how to effectively implement the fund raising regulations in a manner that increases both opportunities for philanthropic support and compliant implementation of the new mandates.
The rules include specific operational requirements, some of which prohibit protocols that were required under the original HIPAA regulations.
The "magic words" mandated by HIPPA-related regulations changed in multiple areas. The webinar will cover all of these areas to ensure your organization is both legally compliant and operationally effective.
