On February 5, Day Pitney's Jim Bowers and Eric Fader, along with Kate Borten, a nationally recognized expert in health information security and privacy, hosted a very successful one-hour webinar entitled HIPAA Readiness: Don't Be Penny-Wise and Pound-Foolish!  The webinar focused on recent changes in the HIPAA privacy, security, and breach notification rules, and compliance strategies in the face of increasing enforcement by the Office for Civil Rights of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.  A copy of the PowerPoint presentation is available upon request to the blog's Editor-in-Chief at efader@daypitney.com.
