Navigating HIPAA and Privacy Considerations Across Healthcare, MedTech, and Life Sciences

From patient care to product development, handling sensitive health data has never been more complex, or more risky. As protected health information (PHI) becomes more digital and interconnected, companies must understand how HIPAA’s Privacy and Security Rules, and related privacy obligations, apply to their operations. Join Daniel Pepper, Chair of Fisher Phillips’ Data Protection and Cybersecurity Group, and Hannah Sweiss, Co-Chair of the Firm’s Healthcare Industry Group, for an essential webinar exploring HIPAA and privacy compliance in an increasingly changing regulatory and technological environment.

This session will provide a practical, cross-industry look at how privacy laws shape data handling, patient rights, and regulatory risk.

Topics will include:

• Overview of HIPAA’s Privacy and Security framework and key compliance obligations for covered entities
• How to prepare for the strict proposed security updates to the HIPAA Security Rule
• Privacy considerations unique to healthcare providers, medical technology companies, and life sciences organizations
• Strategies for protecting PHI across clinical care, research, and digital platforms
• Practical insights into conducting risk assessments

Attendees will come away with a clear understanding of how to align organizational practices with HIPAA privacy requirements, manage privacy risks across diverse functions, and enhance compliance programs to protect sensitive health data.
