January 22, Free Compliance Webinar
Breaches. Fines. Audits. Don’t be the next headline.
What you'll learn in this webinar:
- What 2025 Revealed: The most common HIPAA violation causes and compliance gaps regulators continue to penalize.
- Business Risk Areas: Analyze the top three most frequent failure points for medical practices that lead to HIPAA fine.
- Audit & Enforcement Reality: How OCR and HHS identify weak programs and why proactive compliance is essential.
- Your 2026 Playbook: Practical steps to build and maintain a strong, ongoing compliance program, with or without a dedicated team.
In 2025, healthcare organizations reported hundreds of data breaches affecting tens of millions of individuals, and small businesses were not spared. OCR enforcement actions continue to show a clear pattern: most breaches and fines stem from the same preventable compliance failures, including inadequate employee training, weak or non-existent policies, and poor vendor oversight.
For covered entities and healthcare-adjacent businesses without dedicated compliance teams, these risks are growing and regulators are paying closer attention.
In this educational webinar, Compliancy Group will break down real breaches, fines and settlements from 2025, explain what went wrong, and show how these failures connect directly to HIPAA and broader compliance requirements enforced by OCR, HHS, and the OIG. They’ll outline practical, ongoing compliance frameworks designed specifically for small and large organizations that offer guidance, structure, and peace of mind.
Now is the time to avoid another year of overlooked gaps that put your organization, patients, and revenue at risk.
