Government Regulations for Healthcare – Where Are We At and Where Are We Headed? – #HITsm Chat Topic

We’re excited to share the topic and questions for this week’s #HITsm chat happening Friday, 10/19 at Noon ET (9 AM PT). This week’s chat will be hosted by John Lynn (@techguy) on the topic of “Government Regulations for Healthcare – Where Are We At and Where Are We Headed?”.

The one constant in healthcare is regulation. Healthcare is a highly regulated environment. There’s no way to get away from it. The best we can do is understand what regulations are coming, influence the rule making process so that good regulations are put in place, and learn to deal with the regulations as best you can.

Join us for this week’s #HITsm chat where we talk about some of the latest healthcare regulations. We’ll dive into regulation details and where those regulations could be headed. We’ll also discuss what other regulations might be coming that we should know about. Come and share your perspectives and insights on the important regulations in government.

Topics for this week’s #HITsm Chat:
T1: What government regulations take up the majority of a healthcare organization’s time? What has you concerned about those regulations? #HITsm
