Inadvertent disclosure to another in same CE and no further disclosure. PHI is encrypted or shredded. Assess Low Probability of compromised PHI Type of identifiers? Nature and extent of PHI? Who is the unauthorized person? Who learned of the PHI Was the PHI printed out, or viewed? Has the extent of risk been mitigated? Is there financial/legal benefit with the breach 2
3 How sensitive is the PHI How likely is reidentification? SSN or DLN? How many patients affected? How much PHI? Psych hx, medication use, alcohol or drug use, HIV, etc. Risk Assessment Guidelines See handout re: identifiers encryption exceptions risk assessment burden of proof Lower Risk versus Higher Risk to PHI note: no longer an assessment of harm to patient, but new focus on safety of PHI. 3
4 Breach Notification Letters (see template) What happened What PHI was compromised By who, when and how? Action steps being taken to prevent reoccurrence Public Relations opportunity to reassure re privacy priority Remediation and Preventing Re Occurrence Offer credit monitoring Set up a call center Improve policy Add staff training Encrypt portable media Require new password Increase physician security eg. Locks Sanctions to employee ID gaps in compliance 4
5 Sanctions: 1 st level Low Risk of compromised PHI and no harm to patient or organization Verbal warning with re education or a process improvement No Breach Notification required Sanctions: Low risk but Intentional access Written warning or final written warning Low Risk but malicious or unethical intent such as a domestic dispute, or flagrant disregard for policy: Termination 5

7 Documentation Requirements Have you followed your sanctions policy? Has HR and the manager thoroughly addressed the matter to prevent re occurrence? Does the punishment fit the crime? What is your resolution? Your conclusion and gaps identified? Documentation Requirements Complainant name, contact info What PHI compromised? How many affected? Date of breach and date discovered Answer to all risk assessment questions Who was consulted? How was your conclusion reached? Date of letter to patient 7
8 Documentation See HIPAA toolbox for documentation checklist. Remember more breaches will be reported and all must be documented Exception: You may decide to send letter and notification without an analysis, but must error on side of over rerporting, and still document. Fines HIPAA is enforced by the Office of Civil Rights, within the Dept of Health and Human Services Anyone can enter a complaint on the OCR website Even if agency did not know it was a violation $100 to $50,000. Note: individuals and the organization can be fined. 8
9 OCR Complaint Statistics Roughly 1000 new HIPAA complaints are received by OCR each month As of 6 months ago (12/12) there were 525 cases violations over 500, and 60,000 under. HIPAA fines are higher OCR conducts audits on regular basis May pose a $1000 to $50,000 fine for violations found Fines increase if violation is due to willful neglect such as lack of encryption standard, or lack of policies, to $10,000 to $50,000. 9
10 Willfull Neglect Conscious, intentional failure or reckless indifference OCR will investigate all cases of willful neglect OCR fines are $50,000 for violations due to willful neglect not corrected within 30 days. OCR will impose fines for all willful neglect OCR Fines and Penalties Penalties are capped at $1.5 million for identical violations during the year. New Criminal penalties include 1 10 year jail terms. Example: PHI sold for financial gain or malicious harm (fraud or ID theft etc) 10
11 OCR Audits OCR now has a permanent audit program Audits address privacy and security OCR uses fines collected to fund more audits With greater use of EMR, more possibility of misuse for fraud or ID theft exists; thus more audits and fines All Subcontractors and vendors now a BA! They must notify you of a breach notification. Are now a covered entity under HIPAA Vicarious liability for business associates 11
12 Create Large Scale Incidence Response Team HR, legal, physicians, Office manager, privacy officer and Munson Security. Munson Privacy Officer available for consultation. Assemble and practice a case scenario. Create a thorough policy on how to handle small and large scale breaches, investigations, documentation, analysis and mitigation Staff Education To prevent breaches, the best approach is clear and frequent HIPAA education and tips and discussions. Make consequences clear and quick. Let them know you trust but verify. Scare people straight. 12
