In this presentation, Chris Alibrandi O’Connor, JD, a legal consultant and former Deputy Director with the Network for Public Health Law, will describe how HIPAA permits disclosure of Protected Health Information to community health workers when they are part of a person’s care coordination. The one-hour Grand Rounds session includes an opportunity to engage in a didactic presentation, gain insight on how Indian Health Service, Tribal and Urban Indian (I/T/U) facilities may effectively improve linkage to care, become part of a learning community, and ask questions about navigating HIPAA for care coordination in Indigenous healthcare systems.
