Why it matters

Why does your dental practice need this form?

Do you enjoy taking videos and pictures of patients to share their new beautiful smile with the world? It’s a great way to reassure potential patients that they’re in great hands.

But you don’t want to get caught sharing patient photos without a signed social media consent form.

Don’t make the same mistake as other dental practices like this one.

HHS enforcement action

Dental practice pays $10,000 to settle social media disclosures of patients’ protected health information

A dental practice agreed to pay $10,000 to the Office for Civil Rights (OCR) at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, and to adopt a corrective action plan, to settle potential violations of the HIPAA Privacy Rule.
