HLTH Conference Highlights Industry’s Pace of Innovation

By Gregory N. Etzel , Michele L. Buenafe , and Mark B. Stein
// November 07, 2019

Several lawyers from our healthcare industry team recently attended HLTH in Las Vegas. HLTH provided a showcase for innovative ideas, platforms, and programs embracing the concept of “patient-centered care.”

This year’s event offered particular focus on innovations addressing the social determinants of care, elements of daily life that create barriers to receiving health services. As one executive of a large hospital system mentioned, they were reframing the institution’s vision around “health” and not “healthcare.” From programs in states partnering with ride-share apps to ensure Medicaid beneficiaries made their appointments, to highly integrated medical record and patient communication platforms designed to meet patients in their own space, there were numerous examples of business opportunities and legal challenges.

Consider Enhancing Cyberliability Insurance Policies to Align with CCPA: Part 1

By Jeffrey S. Raskin
// September 24, 2019

Taking effect on January 1, 2020, the data privacy law creates new statutory rights governing the handling, storage, and sale of personal information. It broadens significantly the definition of “personally identifiable information” over prior statutory enactments. It reaches companies inside and outside of California based on revenue or the number of consumers whose personal information is bought, sold, shared, or received by a company. It creates private rights of action permitting the potential recovery of statutory or actual damages for consumers, and a new public form of action for the assessment of fines by the state attorney general.

Will typical cyber-related liability insurance policies respond to actions initiated under the CCPA? In their current form, many likely will not. This post suggests enhancements to existing cyberliability policies to maximize their potential responsiveness to CCPA actions.
