MANASQUAN,

-- July 7, 2009: August
1, the deadline when FTC enforcement of the Red Flags Rule begins, is
fast
approaching. Will your organization be ready for compliance?
Identity Theft is on the rise. Medical Identity theft is the fastest
growing type of identity theft.
Section 114 of “FACTA” the Fair & Accurate
Credit Transactions Act, required six regulatory agencies to create
rules requiring organizations that deal with consumer information to
monitor for identity fraud.
Does your organization have an identity theft prevention program
designed to detect, prevent and mitigate identity theft?
Many healthcare organizations may not have been unaware of these
regulations, one expert said.
How much does your staff understand about protecting and verifying
information?
How much do you know about identity theft?
Only 17.5 percent of hospitals were currently in compliance when the
original May 1 enforcement deadline was near, a recent national survey
found.
The new federal regulation is administered by the Federal Trade
Commission, (FTC).
"The red flags rule is intended to address all forms of identity theft,
including those involving the provision of health care," according to
an FTC document.
"Although identity theft most commonly is associated with financial
transactions, there are increasing concerns about identity fraud in the
context of medical care," the agency said.
That’s why you and the key members of your organization
should plan to participate in " Will Your Organization Be In Compliance
With the Identity Theft FTC Red Flags Rule?" a new audio webcast, Thursday, July 16, 2009, at 1:30
pm.
Lisa Asbell, an acclaimed expert in the Red Flags Rule, will be the
