The Requirements and Responsibilities of a HIPAA Security/Privacy Officer
OVERVIEW
Discussions, presentation, and webinars regarding HIPAAregulations are usually addressed from the perspective of what the regulations
entail, the necessity of compliance with the regulations, and the consequences
of wilful neglect or non-compliance.
This presentation addresses HIPAA regulations from a different
perspective – from a personal perspective – from the perspective of the person
in charge of moving an organization or facility toward full compliance with
HIPAA. The by-product of this presentation will be both an understanding
of, and a detailed job description for, a position mandated in the regulations
– the HIPAA Security/Privacy Officer.

WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND

and affect every person working in a healthcare facility. Compliance with
HIPAA will require a unique individual to lead the charge – an individual whose
education, background, experience, and demonstrated skill sets offer the
opportunity for that person to succeed in achieving the goals of that position.
This is a new position to most healthcare facilities. So understanding who this
person should be, what is required of the person with this job title, and with
whom this person will interface is vital to every healthcare organization with
the goal of achieving full compliance with HIPAA.
