Gartner Opinion
• Social-networking (SN) sites provide new channels for marketing and CRM
• Uncontrolled use of SN sites by staff can expose internal corporate activities
and intellectual property to inappropriate audiences.
• SN sites provide mechanisms for rapid, viral distribution of active and
passive content that can include illegal, damaging and offensive material.
• Personal and corporate information posted on SN sites can be used to
support identity fraud and competitive espionage activities.
• Enterprises need to ensure that they maintain control over their content.
• SN firms that attempt to gain control over content through licensing or other
means should be avoided at all costs.
• Whether they "explicitly" try to take control now or not, there is no telling
who might buy their property and, typically, what safeguards they may put in
place to protect your content.
Discussion
• Personal & Professional
– What is the Right Balance?
– Who Decides the Balance?

Appendix Two
Privacy in Healthcare Context
• Emerging Practice Given Ubiquitous
Technology Deployment
• HIPAA & Perverse Consequences
• Plethora of Proposed Laws
HIPAA 101
• HIPAA was designed to:– Ensure health insurance portability
– Reduce health care fraud and abuse
– Guarantee privacy and security of health information
– Provide standards for electronic exchange of health information
• Examples of HIPAA’s impact include:– Portability.
• Guarantees medical coverage renewal, prohibits discrimination based on health status, and eliminates some preexisting conditions exclusions.
– Transaction Standards and Unique Identifiers • Creates standard formats and code sets for all major digital transactions
and provides national identifiers for providers, employers and payors.
– Security Rule.• Provides a uniform level of protection of all electronic health information.
– Privacy Rule.• Addresses the rights of an individual, the procedures for exercising these
rights and the uses and disclosures of health information. Confidentiality.
HIPAA protects the rights of individuals, not just
patients. An individual is the subject of health
information. This can include patients and health plan
participants and their covered dependents. These same
rights extend to legally authorized representatives.
A covered entity's workforce
includes employees, volunteers,
people whose conduct is under
the direct control of a covered
entity, and people involved in a
covered entity's training
programs.
Individually Identifiable Health Information (IIHI) is
health information that either identifies an individual or
provides a reasonable basis for identifying an individual,
by virtue of containing one or more of 18 identifiers.
PHI stands for Protected Health Information. This is
health information—in any form—that can identify an
individual. HIPAA and Texas state law defines how PHI
may be used and disclosed.
HIPAA Glossary
National v. State Regulation
• Many states, including Texas, passed their
own versions of HIPAA.
• HIPAA resolved this issue by instructing that
when state and federal versions differ, the
more restrictive version applies.
• Texas Health has reconciled state and federal
law; more restrictive law is reflected in our
privacy policies and training.
Providers. Texas Health is a health care provider. Providers range from large hospital systems to individual nursing homes, labs, and pharmacies. Health care providers are also doctors, nurses, dentists, psychotherapists, and others who care for patients.
Plans or Payors. Examples include Cigna, United Health Care, Blue Cross/Blue Shield, and Aetna.
ClearinghousesThese are systems that process information for other companies such as most billing services like WebMD Envoy® .
Who is Included?
Protected Health Information
