The challenge for HIPAA privacy and security, cybersecurity and information security professionals is not alleviated with the OCR’s relaxed standards, during COVID-19. Hackers are using the COVID-19 crisis to steal information, at an alarming rate. Providers are now serving their patients at home, which have weakened security measures in place. Patient's and provider's information is now at risk as hackers target through telehealth portals. The purpose of this webinar is to ensure providers do not fall prey to hackers or the newly arisen scams and those which have intensified during this global health crisis, in the telehealth space. Learn how to protect ePHI during this time of OCR’s excusable penalty time. Discover how to identify threats that will not only put patients’ information at risk, and but risk the provider's identity. In this webinar, you will identify security threats of telehealth platforms and hackers’ tools.

The challenge for hospitals and providers is ensuring telehealth services receive payment from Medicare and Medicaid. Understanding the various platforms and OCR expectations helps to ensure reimbursements.
