Webinars

When a healthcare breach hits, the instinct is to unplug everything and tell staff what’s happening, and both moves can cost you. This webinar walks chronologically through a real breach, from the first alert to notifying regulators, covering when an incident legally becomes a breach, why you call your cyber carrier before anything else, whether paying ransomware actually helps, and how your business associate agreements decide who’s on the hook. The throughline: nearly every good decision in the crisis depends on preparation you made before it, from tabletop drills to audit logs to the BAA language you never read.

Most physician practices believe four things that quietly leave them exposed: that they’re too small to target, that HIPAA compliance equals security, that cloud vendors handle the risk, and that cyber insurance will cover them. This webinar dismantles all four, with a security expert and a healthcare advisor explaining why small practices are actually prime targets, why insurers deny claims, and where the real threats now come from. The clearest takeaway: cybersecurity is not a tool you buy but a system of people, policy, and constant reassessment, and the human at the front desk is often your biggest vulnerability.

As a medical practice grows, IT stops being a utility you can ignore and becomes a strategic decision: what to run in house, what to hand to a partner, and how much to spend on security you hope you never use. A practicing physician CEO and a managed services technology leader walk through how they made those calls through mergers, standardization, and the constant pull between overspending and leaving the practice exposed. Their shared takeaway is simple: start with the business problem, then work back to the technology.
