Q: Sometimes employees don’t seem to have a great understanding of HIPAA even after they have received HIPAA training. What HIPAA training strategies work best?
Q: Can we bill for Part A payment for an inpatient stay of less than two midnights if the physician expected the patient to meet the 2-midnight benchmark at the time of admission?
Q: I have to fly to a conference for work. I was hoping to work on the way, at the airport and on the plane, but I sometimes need to access electronic PHI to get my work done. What should I do to ensure that I stay HIPAA compliant while traveling and working in public places?
Q: I work for a pharmaceutical company. I am aware of the more obvious identifiers, but are patient diagnoses or ICD-10 codes (without any other identifiers such as dates of birth or Social Security numbers) considered PHI? I have heard arguments on both sides.
