I had the great opportunity to sit down with HIPAA expert, Rita Bowen from HealthPort, at HIMSS 2013 and learn more about the changes that came from the recently released HIPAA Omnibus rule. The timing for this video is great, because today is the day the HIPAA Omnibus rule goes into effect. In the video embedded below, Rita talks about what you should know about the new HIPAA changes, the new business associate requirements, and restricting the flow of sequestered health information.
