Legal Issues Surrounding Patient Data While Working With Law Enforcement

Gain an understanding of when medical documents can and cannot be disclosed to law enforcement. When a nurse at a Utah hospital was arrested for refusing to draw the blood of a traffic accident victim, the resulting video went viral and resulted in widespread praise for the nurse and condemnation (and an eventual firing) of the officer. When a Houston hospital reported a suspected medical identity thief to the local sheriff, the fact that the patient was in the country illegally became the focus of reporting on the matter and eventually resulted in a $2.4 million HIPAA fine for the hospital. Both of these cases point out the difficulty medical record custodians face when the privacy obligations applicable to medical data collide with the needs of law enforcement. This difficulty will likely only increase in a pandemic environment involving vaccine passports and other possible public health enforcement activities. This topic will outline the rules related to medical record privacy, including the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 and its regulations. This topic will discuss which disclosures are required, which are permitted, and which are prohibited. It will also highlight the specific instances when disclosure to law enforcement officials is required or permitted; and the specific steps that medical record custodians should take to ensure that the rules are followed. Specific law enforcement situations will be discussed, and proper responses (and requests for information) will be provided.

Develop Habits of Highly Successful People

Learn how to master habits and improve your thinking and behavior. Most people think they are in command of their decisions, but they're fooling themselves, because they fall into thinking and behavior traps of which they're usually completely unaware. Breaking bad thinking and behavior habits is difficult and can seem like an unnecessarily difficult chore. Only when inertia carries a person or organization to a point where they can no longer deny they have a problem do they tend to take action. By then, the cost of repairing the damage caused by bad habits practiced for long periods of time is far greater than the cost of proactively taking action early. This topic will deliver a framework for mastering habits for individuals and organizations. This material uses the presenter's experience as a legal support and legal operations professional to illustrate the ways people and companies can improve their thinking and behavior by mastering their habits. To become a successful person, one needs to cultivate the habits that correspond to successful outcomes. While this correlation will not necessarily guarantee successful outcomes in all cases, success is far more likely to prove elusive without the habits that typically attend positive results.

Improve Workplace Performance With Better Listening Skills

Avoid miscommunication issues - learn this easy to follow method for active listening and ensuring that messages are received as they were intended. Studies have shown that the average person only listens at 25 percent capacity. Another study showed that a total estimated cost of $37 billion could be attributed to lost productivity due to miscommunications and assumptions. That study involved a survey of 400 companies with a total of 100,000 employees. The same study found that the average cost per company was $62 million per year. Group Vision estimated in another study that Fortune 500 companies wasted an estimated $75 million per year on meetings and the major culprit for the waste was ineffective listening skills when materials or information had to be constantly repeated. This topic will address some of the most common causes or reasons for miscommunication and poor listening. It will also provide a systematic, easy to follow method for active listening and ensuring that messages are received as they were intended.

Leader Mindsets: The Key to Unlocking Effective Leadership

Gain a better understanding on how to enhance your personal leadership around the power of mindset. Reports suggest that organizational leaders generally perform well below expectations. For example, 65% of employees say they would prefer a new boss over a raise. Why is this the case, even with leadership development being a multibillion dollar industry? The answer lies in an individual attribute that most leaders and leadership developers overlook: mindsets. For decades, researchers have found that mindsets are foundational to and drive how individuals think, learn, and behave. Despite their foundational influence, few in organizations ever talk about or focus on mindsets. In fact, research has found that only 5% of leaders consistently possess the mindsets necessary for effective leadership. This topic will help you awaken your mindsets and learn how to harness the power of mindsets to enhance your personal leadership as well as the leadership throughout your organization. You will also be given access to a personal mindset assessment to identify the quality of their current mindsets.
