What Is Health Law? HIPAA

On April 7, Doriann Cain of the Indianapolis office presented on a webinar entitled "What is Health Law? HIPAA." The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, commonly known as HIPAA, is a cornerstone of modern federal healthcare privacy and security law and an understanding of its privacy and security requirements is fundamental to health care providers and the attorneys that represent them. The Podcast Series examined the basics of what HIPAA requires, how health law attorneys encounter it in practice and what types of issues your clients might face. The webinar was presented by the American Bar Association.
