HIPAA has been synonymous with a patient's privacy and security since its inception over 25 years ago. Recently the failure of covered entities to provide patients with a copy of their medical records within a prescribed period of time set forth in the regulations has been a focus of OCR's enforcement.

In addition to recent enforcement actions, reproductive healthcare has also become a primary focus, as well as its relationship to HIPAA, including the law enforcement exception, which may apply.

This CLE course will address:

• The Privacy Rule and its application to providing medical records to patients as specified by the 11 recent enforcement actions;
• Key portions of the Dobbs Opinion as it relates to patient privacy and HIPAA
• Updates and recent actions on reproductive health and data tracking from both OCR, HHS, the FTC and the White House Executive Order
