Avoid Info Blocking Violations & Fines for Patient Records Access

Patient information protection rules have changed. Now the federal government is requiring that you share patient information OR ELSE.

The federal 21^st Century Cures Act (also called information blocking) states that you MUST make electronic health information (EHI) available to patients and others securely, at no cost, and without delay. This rule requires substantial changes to your practice’s technology, HIPAA policies and procedures and even clinical workflows.

Failure to comply with these Cures Act mandates can get you audited and lead to thousands in violation penalties.

Thankfully, you don’t have to navigate these requirements alone.
