Our guest, David Szabo, Co-Chair of the Health Care practice, a Partner in the Corporate and Transactional Department, and a member of the Privacy & Cybersecurity Practice Group with Locke Lord, LLP joins our regular panel of senior health IT consultants, Ken Kleinberg, Jocelyn Keegan and Gary Austin to dish on Health IT and the Law.

During Part 1 of this 2-part series, the discussion covers:

  • compliance with CMS/ONC rules and consequences of non-compliance,
  • Information blocking: what is it? what happens if you do it? what are the implications for patients consenting to share data with 3rd party apps outside of HIPAA
  • telehealth: relaxed regulations and waivers, mandated reimbursement rates, loosening practice borders, vendor preferences, increased usage, potential for fraud

Look forward to Part 2 which covers price transparency and pick up the conversation around data privacy issues that may arise due to information blocking regulations
