AI, Health Care & HIPAA – New Compliance Challenges
Recorded Webinar
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is transforming health care, drawing on vast resources of health information to reshape everything from diagnosis to treatment, payment, health care operations, research and much more. AI’s reliance on individually identifiable health information raises patient privacy and security questions that were unimaginable when the HIPAA Rules were developed.
The problem can be stated simply – what is AI, and what does it mean for HIPAA compliance?
AI is not coming to health care – it is here. And so is HIPAA, one of the few laws in place covering PHI that fuels health care AI. There is no question that AI will be regulated, the question is how and when. In the meanwhile Covered Entities and Business Associates must address AI HIPAA compliance to protect themselves from violations and reduce the risk of damage to their reputation, stability and financial well-being.

Does your organization consider the strategic, operational, and compliance related impact of human capital decisions on its ability to achieve its business goals and objectives? Does your human capital help your organization achieve its management goals? Are your employment policies and practices creating material risks and liabilities? Are AI issues now affecting your employment practices? This webinar discusses the development and use of HR Audits in answering these questions and in addressing critical risk management and due diligence issues. The threats and risks from human resource management issues are increasing. No longer measured in only fines, penalties, and awards for non-compliance, human resource management affects keys business metrics, including the organization’s valuation and credit rating. Further, improper human resource management can significantly reduce managerial prerogatives and seriously damage the organization’s reputation and employment brand. As a result, HR audits have become an important tool in identifying problem areas and are increasingly evolving from an ad hoc audit activity to a critical element of an organization’s risk management and compliance processes. Numerous external forces and factors have an impact on the demand for and scope of HR audits. First, in the global economy, human capital has become for many organizations the single most important determinant of competitiveness, productivity, sustainability, and profitability. Increasingly, the organization’s human capital is the source of innovation and a driver of business success. Second, a confluence of economic, political, and social factors, including corporate scandals, the failure of organizations to adequately assess risks, and the increasing number of stockholder initiatives, have resulted in increased statutory and regulatory requirements, a call for greater transparency, and increased internal and external audit activity. Third, governmental agencies have become more active — some would argue more aggressive — and have committed more resources to conducting assessments of employment policies and practices. Importantly, the EEOC, the OFCCP, U.S. DOL, and ICE have advised employers that they consider self-assessments and audits a “best practice.” Fourth, AI is no longer used solely as a tool to support HR activities. AI is quickly becoming a critical element of strategic and tactical management activities. It this environment, identifying and assessing human capital related risks have become a critical element of an organization’s success. As a result, an organization’s ability to audit and manage these risks plays an increasing role in helping it succeed.
