You know that compliance is not an option, and by failing to comply with HIPAA regs, your clients risk civil enforcement, penalties and fines, and maybe even criminal prosecution.

• The biggest compliance challenges under HIPAA today
• The current status of HIPAA enforcement efforts
• Where health care entities should focus attention to protect privacy and security?
• And what should health care entities be anticipating on privacy and security in the years ahead
