HIPAA Refresh: What Medical Device and Pharma Companies Need To Know

The data privacy and security provisions of HIPAA impact entities operating in the health care and life sciences industry in different ways. This session reviews how HIPAA may directly impact certain manufacturers (especially medical device companies that may operate as a business associate), as well as how HIPAA indirectly impacts both medical device and pharmaceutical companies through restrictions imposed on their customers such as hospitals, pharmacies, and physicians. Join partner Gina Cavalier and senior associate Jaclyn Machometa for a refresher on HIPAA Privacy, Security & Breach Notification Rules. Gina and Jaclyn will also identify key legal and compliance risks presented by HIPAA.
