Marianne H. Harper Director, The Art of Practice Management

Most medical and dental practices are ill prepared for disasters. In addition to the enormous difficulty in returning to business following a disaster, OSHA and HIPAA rules now require that medical and dental practices have a plan of action that will ensure that patient data will not be lost and to also have a plan in place to provide a return to care for its patients.
