8 Common HIPAA Myths - Ep 88


We reviewed the OCR/HHS list of common HIPAA compliance myths when we first started the podcast. Their list is so long that it spread across 3 episodes. Those episodes are still fairly popular today. For today, though, we are covering our own list of common HIPAA compliance myths that we hear.

2017 Compliance Management Plans - Ep 85


Last January, we did an episode with a 2016 Compliance Management Plan.  We even created a reminder poster for it you could download.  The episode was about providing a compliance management plan guideline for compliance officers who are trying to find a way to fit this in your with all your other job duties.

That episode was very popular and the poster was downloaded by new folks even in December.  

This episode reviews that compliance management plan and adds a bit more to it for "extra credit".   We also added a second poster and compliance management plan for a more aggressive approach than just the bare minimum.
