Key Factors to Develop HIPAA Policies and Procedures - 0 views

  •  
    Overview: One of the major requirements of the health care organization to be HIPAA compliant is to develop and implement a set of HIPAA privacy and security policies and procedures. This can be a daunting task for those not knowing where to start and what a set of HIPAA privacy and security policies and procedures should look like. For the cost conscious health care organization, the HIPAA policies and procedures can have multiple uses: first, they can become a basis for training the health care organization workforce; second, they can be used as a basis for conducting a HIPAA self-assessment; and third, they can be used to demonstrate due diligence should there be a breach or an externalHIPAA compliance audit. In today's world it is not necessary that the health care organization spend significant funds to develop a set of HIPAA privacy and security policies and procedures from scratch. The health care organization can likely find templates on the internet that can be used as a starting point to customize HIPAA policies and procedures to be unique for the health care organization. The preparation of a well-documented set of HIPAA policies and procedures needs to be addressed through the development of Privacy and Security policies and procedures that address each of the requirements shown in the HIPAA regulations as amended by the HITECH law and the final Omnibus Regulations. The process of developing the HIPAA privacy and security policies and procedures also provides a reference for the health care organization how to consider the security addressable and required regulation requirements. Why should you attend: There are three situations where having a set of HIPAA policies and procedures are needed: First, the policies and procedures become a good reference to ensure that all areas are addressed for becoming HIPAA compliant. Second, the HIPAA regulations REQUIRE covered entities and business associates to have a set of policies and procedures directing

Standard Operating Procedures for Clinical Trials - 0 views

  •  
    Standard Operating Procedures for Clinical Trials: A set of standard operating procedures for clinical trials is absolutely vital for ensuring the effectiveness of the study for a number of reasons. Standard operating procedures for clinical trials are a very potent means to help researchers, principals or sponsors ensure the accuracy and consistency of the procedures needed for the clinical trial. What are standard operating procedures for clinical trials? Standard operating procedures for clinical trials are written instructions that are detailed to provide information about every aspect of the trial. With this set of standard operating procedures for clinical trials, principals seek to bring about a level of uniformity in a particular task of the clinical trial. Consistency in these standard operating procedures for clinical trials has to be ensured so that the clinical trial meets local, state and federal government and global guidelines and requirements. Equally importantly, standard operating procedures for clinical trials have to also meet regulatory guidelines set out by bodies such as the FDA. The purpose of standard operating procedures for clinical trials should be to help the trial achieve consistency in the quality control and quality assurance. In addition, standard operating procedures for clinical trials should be designed to help the trial achieve the quality of auditability. This is because any clinical trial goes through audits from regulatory bodies, making the role of standard operating procedures for clinical trials all the more important. Factors to bear in mind while establishing standard operating procedures for clinical trials: Standard operating procedures for clinical trials should thoroughly document these among other elements: Event Reporting Safety Monitoring Laboratory Management Pharmacy Management Development of Protocols Informed Consent Operations at the site of the clinical trial While these may be considered the core asp

Key Factors to Write an Effective Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) and Work I... - 0 views

  •  
    Course "Key Factors to Write an Effective Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) and Work Instructions (WIs)" has been pre-approved by RAPS as eligible for up to 12 credits towards a participant's RAC recertification upon full completion. Overview: Writing SOPs or procedural documents can be challenging at times. However, writing SOPs is overall a straightforward process. However, enforcing what you already created and implemented in the pipeline is another story. The term SOP is very obvious. We have seen "clearly written description of how specific tasks are to be done." Another satisfactory definition would be "detailed written instructions that achieve the uniformity of the performance of a specific function." Is the firm doing what the regulations specify? Is the firm doing what their procedures specify? If you are medical device or a pharmaceutical manufacturer, these definitions come as no surprise because when it comes to FDA regulations and guidance documents "establish" means to define, to document (in writing or electronically) and to implement. The goal and emphasis with FDA is simple. Proof of "Establish" is the foundation. Is the firm doing what the regulations specify? Is the firm doing what their procedures specify? Are the procedures being followed and enforced by company personnel? SOPs are needed in regulated industries to give step-by-step instructions for performing a particular job or task. This session will provide a step-by-step overview and a snapshot of the procedure description, the process and format. The subject matter of a SOP may range from how to operate a piece of machinery to how to log into a particular software program. SOPs ensure consistency and reliability because they require training of all affected parties. This session will address recent enforcement actions for SOP related violations but no surprise. Most of our enforcement actions are documentation related, i.e., SOP or other procedural documents. We will review examples from

Developing Hospital Billing and Chargemaster Policies and Procedures - 0 views

  •  
    Overview: Hospital chargemasters are complex and represent a key component for the revenue cycle of hospitals. Chargemasters are intertwined with coding for services, billing for services, charging for services and even involve the cost reporting process. A myriad of decisions must be made concerning how the chargemaster is organized, impacts on coding and billing, charge structuring, cost accounting, and other processes within the revenue cycle. Whenever decisions are made, policies and procedures should be developed, approved and implemented. A proper system of billing and chargemaster policies and procedures can help to maintain an appropriate compliance stance in a world where ambiguous guidance is often the norm. The development of charges and charge structuring within the chargemaster is a major issue often referred to as transparent pricing. While even the Medicare program maintains that hospitals should charge for everything, the way in which charges are set and amalgamated at the claim level can vary significantly between hospitals. A key issue for the chargemaster is differentiating separately charging from separately reporting. The way in which hospitals make decisions about the bundling of charges at the line-item level within the chargemaster leads to many decisions, all of which need justification through proper policies and procedures. Due consideration must be given to departmental concerns about revenue generation, cost reporting implications, coding implications and any associate challenges with billing and claims filing. Why should you Attend: See Typical Questions - Here are some reworded marketing questions: Why are the chargemaster and hospital billing targets of compliance audits? How should we prioritize statutory and contractual compliance for the chargemaster and billing process? Will chargemaster and associated billing policies and procedures give us protection relative to compliance? How should we develop a system of chargemaster po

How to Handle HIPAA Security Incidents, Breaches, Complaints, and Investigations - 0 views

  •  
    Overview: This webinar will cover everything that you need to know about how to handle HIPAA security incidents, breaches, and complaints and the Department of Health and Human Resources Investigations thereof. Not all security incidents are breaches, but all breaches of confidentiality are within the broad ambit of security incidents. Privacy rule violations, such as failing to give a patient a copy of his or her medical records, may also constitute a breach as the $4.2 million fine assessed against Cignet Healthcare of Prince George's County, Maryland, dramatically proved. Handling an investigation properly is key to determining not only how to handle it to mitigate any harm and to take action to prevent it from happening again but also to determine whether it is reportable to affected individuals and to DHHS. HIPAA requires a complaint procedure (policy). The webinar will suggest what such a document should contain as it also will for the required report procedure (what is reportable, who reports, to whom, and required/suggested contents of the report) and the required response procedure (what do the responsible officials do after receiving the report or the complaint). Investigating a possible security incident is key. The webinar will cover how to conduct a thorough investigation of HIPAA security incidents, breaches, and patient complaints. Finally, the second largest HIPAA civil money penalty or settlement, $4.2 million, was in large part due to the offender's failure to cooperate with the DHHS investigation. The presenter has successfully defended his clients in seven such investigations and knows how to respond to them to avoid or minimize liability. Think of a gap analysis as an examination of: What you currently have in place for HIPAA compliance. Is that adequate? Can it be done better? Is it enough? And what am I missing? Asking these questions will help establish the direction and next steps to take. It lays the ground work for a good Risk Analys

Medical Aesthetics Market Continues to Grow Owing to the Rising Demand for Surgical Pro... - 0 views

  •  
    Medical aesthetics is a fairly broad field that covers several different, often overlapping sub-specialties. These include endocrinology, gynecology, pathology, radiology, gastroenterology, health care, obstetrics/maternity, orthopedics, pediatrics, physiology, psychology, statistics, and pharmacology. The field of medical aesthetics is increasingly expanding due to increasing numbers of people who have an interest in looking better and feeling better about their appearance. This interest has resulted in an expansion of the field into several subspecialties, which are described below. One of the top five surgical aesthetic procedures is liposuction. Liposuction is a procedure used to remove pockets of fat from different parts of the body to improve facial features, such as an extra small smile, sagging skin around the eyes or lips, or fat deposits in the neck or waist. Other liposuction procedures include using liposuction to change the size and shape of tattoos, removing skin tags, wart formation on the face, flattening abdominal fat, reshaping the breasts after pregnancy, removing wrinkles, and improving the skin texture around the mouth, chin, and neck. Other surgical aesthetic procedures include laser lipolysis, adjustable gastric banding, lipoplasty, blepharoplasty, neck lift, chin and jowl reduction, laser facial resurfacing, and Botox injections. The main factor influencing the medical aesthetics market is the growing surgical procedures worldwide for advanced personal appearance. For instance, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, around 130,000 facelifts are performed in the U.S. and the numbers are increasing annually. According to Cosmetic Surgery Solicitors, the U.S. and Brazil accounted for more than 28.4% of cosmetic producers in the world in 2018. The top five surgical procedures that are done across the globe are ear surgery, fat grafting, rhinoplasty, gyne

Endoscopic Stricture Management Device Market to Grow Rapidly as Olympus Corporation La... - 0 views

  •  
    Endoscopy is a procedure that has been developed to assist in the removal of endometriosis from the human body. Endoscopy is also being used to help in the treatment of gallstones, cholecystitis, and gastric reflux disease among a number of other conditions. The recent developments in this industry have been driven by changes in government regulation and legislation. The increase in the number of malignancies and the introduction of fiscal policy in the region has resulted in political will on the part of the governments to strengthen public health services. Rising product approval for endoscopy devices by regulatory authorities is expected to drive growth of the global endoscopic stricture management device market during the forecast period. For instance, in January 2020, Pentax Medical received the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval for its Imagina Endoscopy System, which will be used in performing gastrointestinal procedures, digital image enhancement system with Pentax i-Scan. This endoscopy machine is equipped with an LED touch-screen interface, which removes the need for periodic bulb replacement. Besides, it is far more cost-efficient than the GI endoscopy system such as video endoscopy. Thus. These factors are expected to drive growth of the global endoscopic stricture management device market during the forecast period. Furthermore, increasing incidence of bleeding during surgical procedures combined with growing number of endoscopic procedures is expected to boost the global endoscopic stricture management device market growth over the forecast period. However, the lack of skilled healthcare professionals to perform surgical procedures, especially in emerging economies combined with complications related to endoscopic procedures such as bleeding and infection is expected to hamper the global endoscopic stricture management device market growth over the forecast period.

FDA New Electronic Data Capture Guidance - What is the impact on Inspectional Record Re... - 0 views

  •  
    Overview: FDA 7348.811 section 1 states, "Regardless of the type of system used by the clinical site, the regulatory requirements for clinical data do not change whether clinical data are captured on paper, electronically, or using a hybrid system." What type of system is best for your program and investigator capabilities? The wrong choice yields inspectional non compliance. The right choice of electronic data capture, direct data entry, and data management depends on a sponsor assessment of the systems and procedures at the investigator site as compliant with FDA inspectional requirements. Additional source documentation procedures (origination, authorization, and signature) are required at the investigator site to address the electronic data capture process. It is these three FDA mandated inspectional criteria, applicable to every electronic data element, that generate most of the significant inspectional noncompliant findings. Some data elements are more likely to be associated with the findings of noncompliance than others. It is in fact difficult to determine which data requires or does not require original source documentation and what defines "original source documentation". Why should you attend: Investigators commonly assume that the new guidance and regulations reduce the need for source documentation in clinical trials. In fact, there are new procedural documents relevant to the electronic source documents and direct data entry that are required to comply with the current inspectional standards and the final guidance. Sponsor due diligence in choosing, training, and monitoring investigator sites to enable the use of compliant electronic data capture is required. Basic knowledge of part 11 and GCP requirements will be helpful in attending this advanced webinar. The focus will be on the additional FDA inspectional requirements for electronic data capture, and the impact of using electronic data capture on the seven FDA inspectional priority objectives

Get Ready For Your HIPAA Compliance Audit - 0 views

  •  
    Overview: The webinar will concentrate on topics that HHS has announced will be the focus of the first round of "desk audits". They reflect significant areas of non-compliance revealed in the 2012 pilot audits and HHS HIPAA violation investigations concluded by Resolution Agreements and Corrective Action Plans. They include: HIPAA Risk Analysis Risk Management based on Risk Analysis Breach Notification Notice of Privacy Practices (for Covered Entities) Minimum Necessary Standard Access of Individuals to their PHI Authorizations Workforce Training This webinar is vital because, in focusing on preparation for a HIPAA Compliance Audit, Covered Entities and Business Associates may review, prioritize and structure their HIPAA Compliance programs. If you have HIPAA Compliance documentation ready to submit on two weeks notice to HHS you are implementing an effective HIPAA Compliance program. In addition, every Covered Entity or Business Associate may face an HHS HIPAA Compliance investigation at any time due to a complaint or a Breach. If you are "audit ready" you will be ready for an investigation - and better able to avoid complaints and prevent breaches. Why should you attend: Every Covered Entity and Business Associate is liable - without prior notice - to be audited for HIPAA Compliance by HHS You will have only 2 weeks after receiving your HIPAA Compliance Audit notification and data request to upload all requested documents to an HHS HIPAA Compliance Audit Portal The HIPAA Compliance Audit data request you receive will specify content and file organization, file names and any other document submission requirements Auditors will not contact an audited entity for clarifications or ask for additional information - it is essential that submitted documents are current, accurately reflect the entity's HIPAA Compliance program and demonstrate HIPAA Compliance Only data submitted on time will be assessed Failure to respond on time may be referred to the HHS regional

Rationale for Clinical Trial Regulations - 0 views

  •  
    Rationale for Clinical Trial Regulations Clinical trials, as we all know, are carried out to test the efficacy of a new drug or device being developed for a specific condition or disease. Clinical trials are experiments that have a high degree of risk if they are not properly implemented. For this reason, it is necessary for regulatory bodies to regulate clinical trials. The core rationale for regulating the various stages of clinical trials is that human subjects, who are part of the research, have to be protected. These clinical trial regulations are legislated at all stages: local, State, national and international. Clinical trial regulations are in force in different countries of the world. Common clinical trial regulations are also made globally by the International Conference on Harmonization (ICH), which has the mandate of setting out good practices for clinical trial regulations for trials done in global cooperation. These regulations cover the administrative, procedural and ethical aspects of clinical trials. Briefly, these are the areas in which there are clinical trial regulations for each of these aspects of clinical trials: Administrative: The administrative aspects of clinical trial regulations pertain to the way the clinical trials are run, and the way they are tracked and monitored throughout their lifecycle. A clinical trial is usually monitored by a sponsoring company or a Contract Research Organization (CRO), which the former hires at times for reasons of convenience and cost cutting. Clinical trial regulations in this area is obviously of importance because if something goes wrong at any administrative stage; these can be rectified. Procedural: Procedural aspects of clinical trial regulations relate to ways by which subjects are chosen for a clinical trial. Proper care has to be taken to ensure that the subjects are appropriate for the clinical study, are from the prescribed age, geographical, demographic, racial and gender-related cl

    The dermabrasion procedure, also known as laser skin resurfacing, is a surgical method used to eliminate outermost layers of the skin to enhance the look of smoother skin. Commonly practiced on patients' faces, the dermabrasion procedure can be done in a medical setting by a doctor or other qualified cosmetic surgeon, specifically trained in the technique to do the procedure correctly. During the procedure itself, a combination of local and deep pulsed light (ultraviolet) or green-yellow light is applied to the skin. There is a major difference between traditional and modern beauty dermabrasion Equipment applications. While the former use mechanical equipment, the latter are completely mechanical applications, without the use of any chemicals. There is a need for an effective analysis of this segment so that one may be able to know the best practices for the application of these treatments.

  •  
    Facial rejuvenation is essentially a cosmetic procedure (or series of cosmetic procedures), that aims to improve a facial appearance to its youthful appearance. Facial rejuvenation can also be done through non-surgical means and address localized facial problems like hyperpigmentation, wrinkles, scars, and facial laxity. Facial rejuvenation involves treating aging signs like wrinkles, age spots, fine lines, and sagging skin. It also involves treating milder forms of facial aging like sun damage, stress, medications, and environmental factors. Some of the popular treatments include fillers, injections, Botox, chemical peels, dermabrasion, laser resurfacing, and the age spot eliminating cream. One of the most effective ways of reducing wrinkles is through the application of creams, lotions, and other applications containing various ingredients. Top of the line anti-wrinkle face cream contains various active ingredients like vitamins, minerals, collagen, antioxidants, proteins, flavones, hyaluronic acid, and macadamia oil. Some of the more popular ingredients in high-end anti-aging skincare products include avocado oil, active manuka honey, grapeseed oil, Shea butter, and phytessence wakame. The main purpose of these ingredients is to stimulate the production of collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid to noticeably reduce lines and wrinkles.
