SUMMARY:Drug and Alcohol Law: Confidentiality Requirements for Hospitals and 2021 Updates
DESCRIPTION:\n\nRegistration fees for webinars are $175/member and $300/non-member unless otherwise noted in an event description.\nNDHA is an approved provider of continuing education by the North Dakota Board of Examiners for Nursing Home Administrators.\n\n\n\n\nDate: 10/5/21\n9:00 – 10:30 AM\n\n\n\n\n\nOVERVIEW:\nThis webinar will cover the law on confidentiality of substance use disorder patient’s records under 42 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) part 2. This law was previously known as the confidentiality of drug abuse and alcohol abuse records. The new law became effective in 2017 with further updates established on February 2, 2018.  Additional revisions to the law occurred in 2020 leaving many hospitals struggling to determine how to meet and maintain compliance. This session will assist hospitals in providing clarity to what should be included in policies and procedures, even for hospitals that do not have dedicated units to treat patients with substance abuse disorders, in order to achieve compliance with the law. Finally, the webinar will also discuss patient access to medical records and what must be in the consent form, research, closure of a program, new definitions, minors, deceased patient records, security of medical records, disclosure, when disclosure is prohibited, and more.\n\n\nSUGGESTED AUDIENCE:\n\nChief Medical Officer, Chief Nursing Officer, Compliance Officer, Emergency Department Personnel, Joint Commission Coordinator, Medical Records, Quality Improvement personnel, Risk Manager, Legal Counsel.\n\nLEARNING OBJECTIVES:\nAt the conclusion of this session, participants should be able to:\n\nRecall that the federal law on drug and alcohol records has been rewritten and is now known as confidentiality of substance use disorder records.\nDiscuss when a minor can consent to the treatment of substance abuse disorder.\nExplain that a special consent form is needed to release the medical records of a patient treated for substance abuse disorder in a part 2 program.\nDescribe when a report of a violation must be reported and to whom.\n\nSPEAKER:\nLaura A.
