HIPAA in 2011. Those 365 days were more about bad headlines for organizations:

  • Cignet Health fined $4.3 million in OCR’s first civil money penalty
  • UCLA Health System pays $865,000 to settle HIPAA violation claims
  • Massachusetts General Hospital agrees to pay $1 million for HIPAA breach

The headlines just kept coming.

In 2012, we want to keep the headlines going – but this year, we want to make more positive ones. HCPro, Inc., which publishes HIPAA Weekly Advisor and the 12-page, print newsletter, Briefings on HIPAA, wants to hear the good things that happen in the world of HIPAA compliance in 2012. We want to share your stories.

Have a good headline from your organization? Decreased your HIPAA breaches? Implement a successful training program? Let us know, and you and your organization could possibly be featured in one of our publications.

Please share your stories with senior managing editor Dom Nicastro.
