OCR Chief Paula Stannard:

My friend and reporter Theresa Defino recently interviewed Paula Stannard, the (new-ish) current Director of HHS' Office for Civil Rights, the HIPAA enforcement agency.  This is Paula's third stint at OCR.  The interview is available here.  

Why do you want to hear what Paula Stannard has to say?

OCR directors are political appointees who change with administrations. As such, CEs and BAs typically like to get to know the OCR director’s goals, priorities and perhaps special interests to align their compliance programs, better safeguard patients’ privacy and avoid enforcement actions.

 Check it out.
