Course Description
Have you ever received a subpoena requiring you to send medical records or even a request for a provider to give testimony for a hearing or deposition? Responding to subpoena requests can be stressful and confusing, so providers need to understand their rights in order to protect their staff and patients. There are a wide variety of laws that govern whether providers have to respond and what information they can respond with. This session will help you understand those laws, including HIPAA, 42 CFR Part 2, and state privilege laws as well as a process for answering subpoenas when they come in.
First, this webinar will provide an in-depth overview of the most important confidentiality law: HIPAA. Attendees will learn what PHI is and isn’t, what information HIPAA protects, and its many exceptions. Next, the webinar will educate attendees on Part 2 protections for SUD records, Part 2 court orders, and the differences between HIPAA and Part 2 in practice.
The next section of the webinar will focus on all things subpoenas, including (1) the elements of a valid subpoena, (2) things to look for in a subpoena, and (3) best practices for subpoena compliance. Because subpoenas are commonplace in a wide array of healthcare settings, all types of providers need to feel confident in their ability to adequately respond to a subpoena request. If a provider does not know what information they are legally required to hand over, and what information they are bound to keep confidential, more confidential information will be disclosed than is required by law. Unnecessary disclosure of confidential information harms patients privacy rights, so this information is essential for providers to know and use in practice.
Last, this webinar will run through a variety of scenarios in which confidential information was requested, by subpoena or otherwise. The examples will highlight the do's and don'ts of subpoena compliance and expose attendees to real-life situations that mirror the situations they may face day-to-day in practice.
