New technologies create new opportunities. This web conference, hosted by Foley’s Telemedicine, Digital Health, and Mobile Health Care teams, features a panel of experienced provider experts and counsel who will share real-world solutions and practical strategies to address the privacy and security challenges unique to telehealth.

The focus will be on common issues that cut across telehealth providers — whether hospitals, clinics, or consumer-facing applications.

Our panelists will:

• Provide practical tips on engaging in discussions with stakeholders, overcoming operational challenges in implementing telemedicine services, and the pros and cons of internal developed solutions

• Discuss best practices for:

  • Compliance with state and federal privacy law, including informed consent, state and federal laws that affect handling of records of telemedicine consults

  • What HIPAA means for telemedicine services

  • Considerations for U.S. providers offering telemedicine services to international patients

• Describe strategies to address key security risks, such as transmission security, authentication, mobile device security, and physical security for telemedicine services
