Compliance That Cares with Nick Gallo

How can SAAS help improve your security compliance? With Wyatt Murray and Michael Hannan

For this special episode of Armchair HIPAA we have, for the first time, two guests! Wyatt Murray (consultant) and Michael Hannan (chief security officer) are employed by LightEdge Solutions! They are experts in Software as a Service (SAAS) and how it helps the healthcare industry stay secure and compliant without burden. Using third party SAAS organizations like LightEdge relieves a lot of stress that covered entities typically try to take on by themselves. Trying to take on too much work that you don’t have the time or expertise to handle leads to disastrous mistakes. Reach out for some extra help and consider SAAS.

Compliance That Cares with Nick Gallo

Nick Gallo Chief Servant at ComplianceLine, is full of wise advice for compliance leaders. He has an interesting take on leadership roles that can frankly be applied to any business. Nick talks about the rebranding of the compliance role and how our industry is moving down a more intimate path; it won't be enough to just sit in your office monitoring compliance from your computer. Try pulling from the natural empathy within your staff and apply it to your everyday tasks. Or, in a similar way, draw on the empathy within yourself to reach out to those in other departments. Don't get left in the dust, start implementing these changes in your organization today!

Compliance is Like a Metaphor with Erin MacLean

Erin MacLean, founder of ComplyInStride joins us today to share with us her advice about how to deal with the "dirt in the corner". Erin and Sarah compare compliance to a walk in the mountains, the pied piper, and "zoomfits"-a term Erin herself coined for zoom outfit. They are huge nerds and can relate any off topic conversation back to HIPAA compliance. Erin wants our listeners to know that no matter how bad things seem, there are always resources and people around to help you. But that doesn't mean that it's not easier to handle things before they get out of hand. If you're struggling with an investigation, or know that if the OCR swang by you might be in some hot water, give Erin a call. Visit complyinstride.com [https://www.complyinstride.com/] or call (844) 888-0464 for a consultation. Erin mentions a webinar she's doing with Dena Castricone on March 2nd. On that webinar they will present the policies they've created!

Protecting your Tech: Not the Other Way Around with Nancy Sabino

Nancy Sabino is the IT Strategy and Compliance Master at SabinoComp Tech. Her, Sarah and hopefully by now all of you, know the importance of training your employees. But most employees that aren’t in IT, don’t understand how their behaviors in the software can damage the computer and compromise PHI. Not following HIPAA regulations set up to prevent weak spots in technology and believing that having the latest updates automatically protects against malware are two of the biggest mistakes Nancy sees every day in her line of work. Listen to her explain the ways you can mitigate these risks.
