Prepare a 2-page interprofessional staff update on HIPAA and appropriate social media use in health care. Introduction As you begin to consider the assessment, it would be an excellent choice to complete the Breach of Protected Health Information (PHI) activity. The activity will support your success with the assessment by creating the opportunity for you to test your knowledge of potential privacy, security, and confidentiality violations of protected health information. The activity is not graded and counts towards course engagement.
Evidence-based strategies to prevent/reduce confidentiality, privacy, and security breaches
Educating healthcare providers on PHI protection measures with social media use.
Retrieving and destroying improperly disclosed PHI.
Modifying policies on social media use to prevent it from being a source of PHI security compromises.
Warning providers of potential penalties for breaching security, privacy, and confidentiality of PHI (Seh et al., 2020).
