Webinar Highlights
First, this is a new webinar that will examine HIPAA changes for 2025 and beyond. A greater focus on medical records privacy exists with strengthening federal and other laws now on the books or coming.

Fourth, this webinar will examine efforts by other federal agencies such as the Federal Trade Commission to regulate medical privacy and data privacy by health care professionals and the health care industry.
Fifth, the role of Artificial Intelligence in health care and the data it generates – often from protected health information – will be reviewed with an eye towards HIPAA in 2025. What topic in public protection and the law would be complete without a review of Artificial Intelligence?
Sixth, the current updates, new changes, and coming modifications to HIPAA in 2025 show many new things on the horizon in health care and medical privacy. This will include the rollout and implementation of new HIPAA laws announced in 2024 for greater privacy and protection for reproductive health care records.
Seventh, this webinar ends with an examination of the continued focus on strict enforcement coming in 2025 by review a multi-million dollar settlement this year with a major hospital over cybersecurity breaches.
