Kroll Fraud Solutions and HIMSS Analytics to Host Two Webinars on Patient Data Safety in the United States

Data protection and identity theft response leader Kroll Fraud Solutions and HIMSS Analytics will host two webinars based on the findings of The 2008 HIMSS Analytics Report: Security of Patient Data, which addresses patient data safety in the United States.

Nashville, TN. (PRWEB) April 15, 2008 -- Data protection and identity theft response leader Kroll Fraud Solutions and HIMSS Analytics will host two webinars based on the findings of a new study that addresses patient data safety in the United States.

The 2008 HIMSS Analytics Report: Security of Patient Data commissioned by Kroll reveals that the healthcare industry's focus on privacy and compliance has created a lack of awareness around the frequency and seriousness of patient identity theft. According to the report, it is a significant blind spot that hinders hospital efforts to contain the problem and reduce the risk.

A panel of healthcare and patient data security risk experts will review the report's key findings and offer expert advice on how to fight back against one of the industry's biggest threats.

  • Brian Lapidus, Chief Operating Officer, Kroll Fraud Solutions
  • Lisa Gallagher, Senior Director of Policy and Privacy, HIMSS
  • Jennifer Horowitz, Senior Director of Research, HIMSS Analytics

What:
