Health Information Security Conference to Run May 11-12 in D.C.
---------------------------------------------------------------

National Institute of Standards & Technology
Press release date: March 30, 2010

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is
co-hosting a conference to explore the current health information
technology security landscape and the Health Insurance Portability and
Accountability Act (HIPAA) Security Rule. The conference on
"Safeguarding Health Information: Building Assurance through HIPAA
Security," presented in collaboration with the Department of Health
and Human Services (HHS) Office for Civil Rights, will be held on May
11 and 12, 2010, in Washington, D.C.
This conference will provide a forum to discuss the present state of
health information security, and practical strategies, tips and
techniques for implementing the security requirements of HIPAA. The
law promotes health care industry efficiency through the use of
electronic health information while protecting the confidentiality,
integrity and availability of the information. Organizations required
to follow the HIPAA Security Rule include government agencies involved
in health records, health care providers, health plans such as health
insurance issuers and Medicaid and Medicare programs, health care
clearinghouses and Medicare prescription drug card sponsors.

Plenary sessions will cover a variety of current HIPAA and health
information technology topics including updates on the HHS Office of
Civil Rights, administration and enforcement of the HIPAA Security
Rule, risk assessments and contingency planning, logging and auditing
in a healthcare context, encryption requirements and strategies in a
healthcare environment, and security considerations for
mobile/wireless technologies and new media in healthcare. Industry
panels will discuss breach notification rules and the state of
compliance with the Security Rule.
NIST provides ongoing expertise in risk management, security and
standards for federal agencies and has been involved in health
information technology research since 1994. NIST has responsibility
through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 to
accelerate the development and harmonization of standards and to
develop conformance test tools for health information technology.

The HHS Office for Civil Rights (OCR) enforces the HIPAA Privacy Rule,
which protects the privacy of individually identifiable health
information; the HIPAA Security Rule, which sets national standards
for the security of electronic protected health information; the
confidentiality provisions of the Patient Safety Rule, which protect
identifiable information being used to analyze patient safety events
and improve patient safety; and the Breach Notification regulations
requiring HIPAA covered entities and their business associates to
notify individuals when their health information is breached.
The meeting is expecting to draw hundreds of HIPAA security rule
implementers; security, privacy and compliance officers; assessment
teams and audit staff. Registration instructions, current agenda and
conference logistics are available at
http://csrc.nist.gov/newsevents/HIPAA-May2010workshop/. Media
interested in attending should contact Evelyn Brown,
evelyn.brown@nist.gov, (301) 975-5661.
