Practical Privacy Officer Strategies
But that’s not the end of the problem. It actually gets worse!
You could continue to –
- Panic when a patient asks for their information for access or correction.
- Scramble when new employees and healthcare providers join your clinic . . .and suddenly realize that you never got around to providing privacy and cybersecurity awareness training.
- Hope that your practice will not be tapped on the shoulder for a practice review by your college or the OIPC.
- Ignore privacy breach and hope no one else notices.
- Avoid difficult decisions with your owners / staff who insist on doing things their way – even when it is not privacy compliant.
- Never get ‘review privacy impact assessment’ and ‘review privacy policies and procedures’ off of your to-do list.
- Avoid discussing privacy and security with your EMR and computer networks managed service providers because you are unsure of what questions to ask and what types of answers you should receive.
Because you don’t have a written privacy management program and action plan, you are missing the systems to monitor routine tasks that will protect privacy and alert you to potential problems before they become privacy and security incidents.
Carrying out the duties of a Privacy Officer correctly is vital to ensure your organization is safe from the consequences of a big privacy breach.
Bottom Line: If you are spinning your wheels trying to figure out how to get started, it will cost you time, money, and frustration!
Which means you never get around to implementing a robust privacy management program.
If you are a privacy officer in a healthcare practice who needs practical privacy management strategies to protect your patients and your healthcare business but can’t figure out how to get started, here’s the solution you’ve been looking for.

It is great to see that I am on the right path for my direction as a privacy officer and just need to update my description and not redo all of my procedures. Thanks!”

“Jean was fantastic and explained things well.
I found the complexity of the training just right. I learnt more about access and privacy as it pertains to the healthcare field. And it validated some of my own experiences and practices.
This course was very useful – I wish I had known about it two years ago when I became a Privacy Officer. Thank you, Jean!”
