Webinar Description:
In February 2009, the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health ("HITECH") Act of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act ("ARRA") broadened the scope of the HIPAA Security and Privacy Rules, greatly increasing the regulatory risk to health care organizations. ARRA also mandated additional regulations, guidance and reports to be released by mid-February 2010.
