This two hour session will address privacy, security, and confidentiality under the federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA); the Illinois Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities Confidentiality Act (IMHDDCA); and the federal Confidentiality of Substance Use Disorder Patient Records regulations at 42 CFR Part 2. The session will explain the situations in which each of the laws is applicable; how each permits and restricts the flow of health information; and references the necessary documentation, authorization, and agreements that must be in place to do so.

It will also address the recent guidance on HR 1 work requirements and how to properly share information with HFS and MCOs.
