The Government is taking HIPAA much more seriously – so should you!

The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA) not only placed additional burdens on employers with new COBRA subsidy requirements, but they also made changes to HIPAA legislation, resulting in: an increase in the level of government oversight and penalties, additional protection procedures to be created and followed, and mandates that changes to many of the policies employers currently have in place. 

On Wednesday May 27th from 12:00 – 1:00 pm, ArlenGroup will be teaming up with employee benefit law expert, John Barlament, from the Employee Benefits Group of Michael Best & Friedrich LLP, to provide you a practical explanation of these new rules and the steps you and your health plan must take to be in compliance, including:

• What additional steps the Department of Health and Human Services will take to ensure plan sponsor compliance

• The increased penalties--which are applicable today!

• The new breach notification rules every plan sponsor much have in place

• What new forms policies you will need

• The deadlines for each of the compliance requirements
