The Innovators Law Firm, LLC will ensure your organization remains up-to-date on all regulations and in compliance in this evolving environment.

Workplace safety is more important than ever. In addition to the guidance, OSHA recently launched a COVID-19 webpage that provides infection prevention information specifically for workers and employers. The design of the workplace will likely shift to accommodate for more social distancing and continue to change as in-person service requirements are re-assessed.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, patients are more cautious than ever about receiving on-site healthcare services. To retain patients, healthcare organizations have needed to adapt to patient demand for telemedicine services. My firm specializes in telemedicine navigating organizations through its rapid legal, regulatory and technological evolution so your healthcare organization can lead at the forefront of innovation.
HIPAA compliance waivers established during COVID-19 are not permanent, and federal officials are beginning to enhance scrutiny of potential HIPAA compliance issues once again. These issues are especially relevant considering the rapid evolution of telemedicine. We will work with your organization to ensure that, as HIPAA compliance and scrutiny continues to change, your healthcare organization can adapt fluidly to the evolving landscape.
