When AI enters clinical and administrative workflows, benefits and risks arrive together. This practical session, we translate HIPAA and safety expectations into plain English and apply an "AI-assisted, not AI-controlled" model to everyday use cases. You will see where AI delivers real gains, what can go wrong without human review, and the simple guardrails that keep care safe and liability low. We showcase to to require from vendors, how to document human-in-the-loop decisions, how to prevent algorithm-only denials and upcoding, and where to file proof so you are audit-ready.

Key Topics:

• Pick the right AI use cases, set human-in-the-loop checkpoints, and document a one-line reconciliation note in the record.
• Require transparency and compliance from vendors, including BAAs when PHI is involved, data minimization, and clear audit trails for coding, prior auth, and scribe tools.
• Close policy gaps, monitor accuracy and drift, and retain evidence for six years to satisfy HIPAA and payer expectations.

When leases end, copier/MFP hard drives can walk out the door with ePHI. In this practical session, we translate HIPAA device/media controls into plain English and apply NIST SP 800-88 (Clear, Purge, Destroy) to everyday returns, swaps, and disposals. You'll see what to require from vendors, how to verify sanitization, how to document chain of custody, and where to file proof so you're audit-ready.

Key Topics:

• Choose the right NIST 800-88 method for copiers and MFPs.
• Demand proper documentation (method, verification, serials, chain of custody).
• Close policy gaps and retain proof for six years to satisfy HIPAA.

Key Topics:

• Real breach case reviews and what failed at each step.
• Regulator responses: investigations, settlements, and corrective action plans.
• How to lock the front doors: phishing defense, access controls, and audit logging that sticks.

This session is designed to cut through the noise on three major forces shaping healthcare in 2026. We'll translate heightened noncompete scrutiny into actionable talent and contracting strategies, unpack the Medicare prior authorization pilots and their operational ripple effects, and clarify how the 2026 Medicare Physician Fee Schedule may affect access, documentation, and margins. You'll leave with a focused 90-day action plan and a practical checklist for contracts, workflows, and analytics designed to protect your organization and keep operations running smoothly.

Key Topics:

• Understand the impact of increased noncompete enforcement on provider contracts, retention strategies, and organizational risk.
• Prepare for new Medicare prior authorization pilots and learn how to strengthen workflows, data tracking, and appeals readiness.
• Assess the 2026 Physician Fee Schedule changes to anticipate revenue shifts, documentation demands, and compliance implications.

The 2026 HIPAA Security Rule introduces significant updates to Business Associate Agreements (BAAs), raising the bar for compliance and security. In this session, we'll break down the critical changes, including the mandatory encryption, multi-factor authentication (MFA) requirements, stricter risk analysis, and enhanced oversight of business associates. You'll learn how to revise your BAAs to meet these new requirements, implement effective controls, and reduce your organization's exposure to compliance risks.

Key Topics:

• Identify which BAA clauses must be updated first, encryption/MFA, incident reporting timelines, subcontractor "flow-down" obligations, and termination-for-cause language.
• Translate the new risk analysis and ongoing monitoring expectations into practical BA oversight, evidence logs, attestations, and remediation tracking that satisfy auditors.
• Implement a step-by-step playbook to renegotiate, execute, and operationalize revised BAAs without disrupting patient care, revenue cycle operations, or vendor relationships.

This session translates shutdown mechanics into clear operational steps for providers, payers, and life science teams. We'll map what typically continues under "excepted" operations, what slows or pauses, and how to maintain stability in revenue, compliance, and patient care until complete government services resume. Walk away with a practical checklist to safeguard cash flow, protect deadlines, and communicate confidently with staff and patients.

Key Topics:

• Discover which authorizations, audits, and reconsiderations are most likely to move forward during a shutdown
• Keep your practice in compliance with limited regulatory capacity, including incident response, BA oversight, and record retention
• Learn how to manage communications and actions with manufacturers, sponsors, and academic partners when FDA reviews, trials, or federal grants are delayed or paused

You'll leave with a clear view of your legal obligations under the Security Rule, the pitfalls to avoid, and practical steps to safeguard ePHI. Our expert speakers, joined by Dr. Jose I. Delgado, CEO of EPICompliance walk through how to recognize and correct SRA errors and implement controls that actually reduce risk.

Key Topics:

• Identify and debunk common SRA myths, and align with what the Security Rule really requires
• Right-size your SRA scope, method, and documentation to meet OCR expectations
• Implement actionable controls that lower risk while supporting patient care

This session explores how healthcare practices can capture revenue from lifestyle medicine services, highlighting practical strategies for billing, documentation, and compliance. Many practices recognize the value of nutrition, exercise, stress management, and behavioral interventions but struggle to translate these visits into sustainable revenue streams. When lifestyle medicine isn’t properly documented or billed, practices risk leaving revenue on the table while missing opportunities to improve patient outcomes. This episode explores real-world strategies to maximize reimbursement, integrate innovative care models, and strengthen the financial sustainability of lifestyle-focused services in primary care.

Key Topics:

• Identify coding opportunities for lifestyle medicine encounters
• Align documentation with compliance standards
• Maximize reimbursement while preserving patient-centered care

This session explores the high cost of delayed care for underserved populations, highlighting how systemic barriers, such as limited transportation, inadequate coverage, and low health literacy, contribute to higher costs and unpaid services for healthcare providers. When care is delayed, patient outcomes suffer, but financial impacts on providers and health systems can be just as severe. This episode explores real-world strategies to address the issue and its financial fallout, focusing on improving patient access and strengthening the financial health of healthcare organizations.

Key Topics:

• Recognize patterns of delayed care in vulnerable populations
• Calculate the downstream financial impact of untreated conditions
• Adopt innovative solutions, including care coordination, telehealth, and community partnerships, to bridge the gap

This webinar breaks down what went wrong, how payers scrutinize claims, and what you can do to protect your organization.

Key Topics:

• Recognize the compliance, coding, and regulatory red flags in the Florida Blue case
• Understand why accurate coding is non-negotiable for providers and staff
