Event Description

Deadline to Register: Tuesday, February 10, 2015

**PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS CLE PROGRAM IS BEING HELD AT GRAY PLANT MOOTY.**

Now that the dust has finally settled on 2013’s HIPAA omnibus rule, covered entities and business associates are increasingly wondering about what’s coming next in the world of health care privacy.  While some of the statutory changes created under HITECH have yet to be finalized, one thing is clear: both the Office for Civil Rights and State Attorneys General will continue to aggressively pursue violations of both the Privacy and Security Rules during the coming year.  A number of significant fines and settlement agreements were levied over the past few years, and 2015 promises more of the same.  Meanwhile, the next round of HIPAA audits of both covered entities and business associates is slated to resume in 2015.  This session will include an In-depth discussion of a number of key enforcement actions and significant settlement agreements.  Please join the Health Law Section for a discussion of HIPAA enforcement highlights, developments and trends that are sure to be of interest in 2015.

Breakfast will be available starting at 7:30 a.m., followed by the program from 8:00 - 9:00 a.m.  Special meal requests need to be received no later than Tuesday, February 10.
