The winds of healthcare privacy continue to shift, most recently with the release of a new rule supporting reproductive healthcare privacy under HIPAA, the Federal Trade Commission’s (FTC) new rule on breach notification for healthcare applications, and the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services’ (CMS) revisions and clarifications regarding informed consent. 

Webinar attendees learned about these new rules and received insights into what’s on the horizon during PYA’s webinar, “The Healthcare Privacy Forecast: Navigating the Regulatory Climate,” on June 19, 2024.

PYA’s Karin Anderson and Erin Walker discussed key provisions of the following final rules impacting healthcare providers:

• HIPAA Privacy Rule to Support Reproductive Healthcare Privacy
• FTC Health Breach Notification Final Rule
• CMS revisions and clarifications to Hospital Interpretive Guidelines for Informed Consent

This webinar was part of PYA’s twice-monthly Healthcare Regulatory Roundup, a popular series during which PYA experts provide practical insights on the latest industry regulatory developments.
