Leading Radiology Group With Over 100 Clients in 25 States Selects Omnibus Updated HIPAA Security Policy Template Suite From www.training-hipaa.net

Waukee, IA – The country's leading radiology group has recently announced that they have selected the Omnibus updated HIPAA Security policy template suite from Supremus Group. This decision was based in accordance with the group's innate pride in efficient liability protection while providing the highest quality standards in radiology healthcare solutions.

The new HIPAA Omnibus Rule was release in January 25, 2013 requiring that all healthcare providers update their HIPAA compliance requirements by September 23, 2013. In selecting the Omnibus updated HIPAA Security Policy template suite, the radiology group is already ahead of the game. They are aware that this is an intelligent first step in reducing the risk of impermissible disclosures of PHI while simultaneously revisiting their security incident response plan. They will also have the opportunity to update their privacy notices, revise their HRAs, and amend their business associate agreements.

Moreover, this decision will allow them to aid in refreshing their business associates agreements. This includes the following: direct liability for their compliance with the HIPAA Security rules, authorizations for Disclosure of Protected Health Information, and penalties for violations. New enforcement provisions under the Omnibus Rule will also create a layered civil penalty structure. This will update the radiology group’s potential violation penalties with the maximum penalty at $1.5 million.

The radiology group, as well as their employers recognizes that the immense benefits of this decision will far out-weigh the potential of increased exposure for violations of the HIPAA Security Policy regulations. The revised restrictions related to authorizations for the purpose of using protected health information will not change to the core requirements for a valid HIPAA authorization.

The Omnibus Rule will help to implement the revision of the radiology group’s electronic media. This will allow the patients to exercise their right to access their medical records and request delivery in an electronic format if it is readily producible by the covered identity.

Overall, the radiology group has no question in their decision in selecting Omnibus updated Security Policy template suite.
