Welcome solo and group practice owners! We are Liath Dalton and Evan Dumas, your co-hosts of Group Practice Tech.

In our latest episode, we're covering what you need to know about HIPAA and your smartwatch.

We discuss common questions we get from group practice leaders about smartwatches; the limitations of smartwatch security; whether smartwatches should be included as BYOD registered devices; potential issues with smartwatch notifications; and security measures to put in place for Apple Watches and Android smartwatches.
