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 discussing the scope of responsibility and liability for device security in group practice.

We cover what handling PHI means; device security measures for devices that touch PHI; a multi-prong approach to device security; Safe Harbor requirements; the benefits of having Safe Harbor in place; Safe Harbor and state data breach laws; the cost of implementing Safe Harbor on all devices.
