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 explain what goes into HIPAA security reminders, which are required under the HIPAA Security Rule.

We discuss our favorite resources for security reminders; our PCT security reminder memes for group or solo practice; documenting security reminders; why security reminders are more useful than annual training; and using current events to inform your security reminders.
