When it comes to cybersecurity the landscape is rapidly changing. An event at your practice may give you the type of publicity that you do not want, and it is getting more and more likely that you may be sued by patients over the breach.
Now is the time to make sure you have completed your HIPAA Security Risk Analysis, implemented a Risk Mitigation plan and have a “DOWN TIME CONTINGENCY PLAN” to ensure smooth uninterrupted services to your patients.
You also want to check the limits of liability on your Cybersecurity Insurance and make sure that you will be covered if patients sue you over this type of event.
