HIPAA, the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, is without doubt, the single most pressing challenge facing healthcare providers, payors, and their vendors this year. Results of industry surveys, including this year's annual HIMSS Leadership Survey reinforces HIPAA is drawing most executives attention and concern.
HIPAA isn't going away. Organizations are attempting to implement the various aspects of the
law. In fact, provider organizations are seriously behind payors in achieving compliance with the law's provisions.
The number 1 priority for healthcare providers during the next two years is upgrading security on their IT systems to meet HIPAA requirements, according to the HIMSS Leadership survey.
Worse, the majority of those surveyed by the Gartner Group reported that they have not even developed preliminary overall budgets for achieving compliance.
Among those organizations that have started work, they expect to average almost $9 million in HIPAA related expenditures.
To help you sort through the priorities, the Managed Care Information Center's e-Healthcare Market Reporter sponsored "HIPAA Compliance: Working Through The Priorities," a special Audio Conference.
