This new Toolkit and Webinar Series explains how two federal data privacy laws – the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) and the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) Privacy Rule – might apply in different school-behavioral health partnerships.
As education and behavioral health partners come together to improve access to services for children, youth and families, it is necessary to consider the importance of information-sharing to facilitate care, and the importance of privacy to maintain confidentiality and build trust.
Please review the toolkit and join us for a series of webinars to learn more. Note that both offer information, not legal advice. Be sure to consult with your legal counsel when making decisions related to the law.
