Our article this month is entitled:   Exploding HIPAA Myths!

This article discusses a number of HIPAA misconceptions that keep coming back like the proverbial "bad penny." Compliance with the regulations is far from trivial, however it is not nearly as complex or expensive as some in healthcare would have you believe. There are too many healthcare stakeholders that would rather delay, defer, or refuse to comply altogether.
