 Why are the Feds enforcing after all these years? 

We will be discussing some of the changes taking place in Washington with the Health and Human Services in regards to the enforcement of the HIPAA laws already on the books.  I will go over some of the new changes affecting covered entities and business associates.  I will also be discussing factors might cause an unwanted visit or letter from the Office of Civil Rights and how to prepare for the audit and deal with the Federal and state governments.
