HIPAA and the HITECH Act
Your patient access staff members can never know enough about HIPAA.
I authored a white paper analyzing the new laws in the Health Information Technology for Clinical and Economic Health Act (HITECH Act) – or Title XIII of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, signed February 17.
Visit our Revenue Cycle Institute to download the white paper, HITECH Act and HIPAA: Strengthen your HIPAA compliance and training programs; prepare for new laws under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009.
I’ve also written some columns about the subject for our daily online healthcare news Web site — www.healthleadersmedia.com:
Thanks!
