It's really simple and easy. After paying your registration
fees, you will sent a special (toll free) 800 telephone number to dial a few
minutes before the conference begins. You just dial it up and put it on your
speaker phone and your set to go. Your 90 minute telephone charges are included
in the cost of registration. |

Why is the conference scheduled on a Saturday? We know
how difficult it is for health care providers and their workforce members to
get time during normal business hours on weekdays to tune in. Our presentations
are intentionally scheduled on Saturdays so that they do interfere with the
regular work schedules at your office.
How many people can listen
in? As many people in your practice or organization as you can fit in a
room or auditorium around a speakerphone or speaker system connected to a
telephone. Registration fees are "per telephone line", not "per person". So, it
makes no difference if you have 6 employees or 600 employees in the room so
long as they are listening to the same telephone connection.
What if
I don't have a speakerphone? For groups in a small practice/office
environment, they can be purchased at Radio Shack. For large audiences in
auditorium environments, you will likely need to rent some commercial equipment
from a professional sound technician.
What other materials are
included? A transcript of the entire presentation is made available
(at no extra charge) to all
attendees after the presentation.
What should I bring? The only
materials you might want to bring is a note pad and writing implement. But many
people don't even bring that because we make a transcript of the entire
presentation available (at no extra
charge) to all attendees after the presentation.
Is
the conference available to the public or just CAL HIPAA subscribers? Our
conferences are only available to our subscribers.
Is a CAL HIPAA
group subscription required for all my employees and workforce members to
attend? No. Anyone with an individual CAL HIPAA subscription qualifies to
have all their co-workers listen in.
How do I submit a question for
the "Question & Answer" follow-up period? Questions are limited to
HIPAA's Privacy and Security Rules. Questions must be submitted (by e-mail only) no earlier than 15 minutes prior to the
conference and may be submitted during the conference and throughout the
"Question & Answer" follow-up period.
Click
here to submit your question. Be sure to note in your message that
your question is for the April 16, 2005 audio conference.
Can I
obtain a copy of the presentation for later use with my workforce members who
can't attend? Yes. We make a transcript of the entire presentation
available to all attendees (at no extra
charge) after the presentation. You are welcome to print it out
and share it with all your employees and co-workers.
Is it necessary
for all my workforce members to tune in? No. Many organizations have only
management attend and then provide a copy of the presentation for all their
other workforce members to study later. And many small practices have one
person (generally the office manager) listen in from home and then make copies
of the transcript of the presentation available for all the other co-workers to
read later. |
