Welcome to the Healthcare & Technology blog. After 17 years in technology, including various leadership roles, and as a Registered Nurse with a Master of Science in Healthcare Informatics, I turn my attention to HIPAA Regulations and compliance for the healthcare industry.
As VP of 3Lions Publishing, Inc. publishers of the HIPAA Survival Guide and Expresso, the Risk Assessment Express I have been able to leverage prior technical knowledge and understanding of HIPAA Regulations and technology risks to help Covered Entities and Business Associates be successful in their HIPAA Compliance Initiative.
Our HIPAA products come pre-packaged with tools, frameworks, policies, over 70 training modules, and more. The HIPAA Survival Guide also offers HIPAA Compliance Certification for individuals. Our SaaS-based Expresso Risk Assessment software contains not only an easy-to-use interface and risk assessment process but also an encrypted Compliance Repository with access to all HIPAA Survival Guide products. We've recently added a Breach Wizard that enables you to assess whether an Incident is a Breach, or not. Healthcare Compliance is, and remains, one of the most pressing challenges facing Covered Entities and Business Associates.
Deborah,
Thank you. The class is Emerging Trends in Nursing. Interesting class--no textbooks, just links to sites and one of the assignments is to follow a health-related blog.

Hi Peggy,
Thank you for your comments. Yes, you did comment on the post "If air travel worked like healthcare" Best of luck to you in your efforts to receive your BSN. I am intrigued by your course title "Emerging Trends" I assume they are emerging trends in healthcare?
Best of luck

Hi,
I thought I had posted a few comments previously, can't see them now! I must have comment on a few of the interesting links. I am also an RN working on my BSN and am researching blogs for my class in Emerging Trends. I look forward to following your postings.
