Session: The Trust Factor: Privacy Framework Adoption in Healthcare

Tuesday, March 15 at 4:15 PM – 5:15 PM EDT
Orange County Convention Center, WF4

The voluntary NIST Privacy Framework promises to help organizations identify and manage privacy risk and optimize beneficial uses of data while protecting the privacy of individuals. Organizations have been putting this flexible tool into action to meet their unique needs and build trust. A report from the International Association of Privacy Professionals found that more than one-quarter of those surveyed have adopted the NIST Privacy Framework less than a year after its release. It also found that organizations with mature privacy programs, such as many in the healthcare industry, tend to be leveraging the NIST Privacy Framework and Cybersecurity Framework. In this session led by NIST, discover how and why healthcare organizations are implementing the NIST Privacy Framework, as well as the benefits they’re seeing and the lessons learned along the way. Plus, consider whether the NIST Privacy Framework is the missing piece to maturing and scaling up your organization’s privacy program.

Learning Objectives

• Assess how and why healthcare organizations are implementing the NIST Privacy Framework
