WOA Member Benefit: "HIPAA and Social Media: Growing Your Practice" Webinar
HIPAA compliance and social media can lead to some of the most common misunderstandings that doctors of optometry face when promoting their practice online. Social media content should never include information that can be used to identify individual patients or their medical records. This kind of data is considered Protected Health Information (PHI) under HIPAA.
A practice with an effective
HIPAA compliance program in place will have:
- Social media policies and procedures to ensure that no PHI is improperly shared
- Patient authorization forms allowing you to post personal testimonials or information with documented consent
- Annual employee training so staff members understand what they can and cannot post on sites like Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and LinkedIn
Take advantage of this WOA member benefit where
AOAExcel’s HIPAA compliance partner, Compliancy Group, outlines how to communicate to patients in a HIPAA compliant manner, so that you can grow your practice and keep your patients' information safe in this exclusive upcoming webinar for AOA members.
