SUMMARY:Balancing Privacy & Parental Rights: HIPAA in School-Based Health Centers
DESCRIPTION:Quick Links:\nRegistration \nBack by popular demand! Due to strong interest following our June 1 session\, MPCA has partnered with ME CDC’s SBHC Program to offer this training again with an additional 30-minute facilitated discussion at the end to explore how the concepts can be applied in practice. This training examines how confidentiality laws protect the health information of minors\, a critical and often nuanced area of healthcare privacy. We’ll explore recent federal guidance shaping this landscape and take a closer look at how these protections apply specifically within school-based health centers. \nAttendees will: \n\nLearn the general rules under Maine and federal law applying to health care information about minor patients;\nUnderstand the impact of recent federal guidance about parental access to the health information of minors;\nExplore how these laws and guidance apply to care provided in school-based health center settings; and\nParticipate in a facilitated discussion to consider practical application\, implementation questions\, and real-world scenarios.\n\nSpeaker: Michael A. Burian\, Esq.\, R.N. Kozak & Gayer\, P.A.\nMichael A. Burian is an attorney at Kozak & Gayer\, where he focuses his practice on health care law. He advises hospitals\, FQHCs\, mental health providers\, nursing facilities\, and other health care organizations on matters including corporate transactions\, regulatory compliance\, and privacy law.
