Medical Device Cybersecurity: HHS 405(d) Best Practices Update

In this webinar, Industry Principal for Healthcare Ty Greenhalgh will share his expert insight on how you can implement the HHS 405(d) medical device security guidelines to:

• Improve patient safety

• Decrease financial risk

• Ensure compliance with the HITECH Act

The new HITECH Act recognizes the guidelines set forth by the Healthcare Industry Cybersecurity Practices (HICP) as a Recognized Security Practice (RSP) to help healthcare organizations achieve compliance, reduce financial risk, and increase patient safety.

The updated HHS 405(d) HICP publication is expected for imminent release. With this update, guidelines for Medical Device Security (Mitigation Practice #9) have received substantive clarity. In addition, the Joint Commission is considering the addition of connected medical devices to their surveys.

As an Ambassador of the 405(d) Task Group, Claroty Industry Principal for Healthcare Ty Greenhalgh actively contributed to the creation of this new update.
