Preparing You for OCR HIPAA Audit & Investigation

Focus is a good thing in life and especially useful in business.  At ID Experts we have been focused on developing HIPAA privacy, security and data breach solutions that are tailored for the healthcare industry. That focus has given us the opportunity to assemble a strong team and partners.  As an example, today we announced our partnership with Apgar & Associates, LLC.   Our organizations share a common focus and dedication to the healthcare industry.  We extend and complement each other’s capabilities and have seen how our customers have benefited from our collective expertise, products and services.  Today’s announcement was simply the culmination of our companies working together for the past year on multiple client projects.  As a result, we are also co-developing services to respond to the evolving HIPAA privacy, security, and breach notification landscape.  We have just co-developed a specific OCR HIPAA audit and investigation service, which we are calling “Mock OCR HIPAA Audit” to help any organization prepare for the forthcoming audits by OCR. 

Chris Apgar and I co-wrote an article titled 10-steps to prepare for an OCR Audit in Healthcare IT News, if you’re looking for perspective on where to begin and what to do.   For more details, we are holding a free educational webinar Are You Prepared for an OCR HIPAA Audit or Investigation on February 15, 2012 at 10:00 a.m. PT.
