Many are concerned about the sweeping new Terms of Service some EHRs are now requiring. We've researched the backstory on this and are appalled by what we've learned. Some of you will be, too.

Our Terms of Service are not changing. PSYBooks has never sold, bartered, or traded any patient data, even in de-identified form. This includes but is not limited to, training AI models.

In addition to being the founder, president, and CEO of PSYBooks, I am also a practicing psychologist. I know how I want to be treated by a healthcare software company. That is how I intend to continue to treat you.

Our goal is, and always has been, to be the very best and most secure EHR possible.

Do-it-Yourself HIPAA workshop for mental health professionals that provides 5 ethics CEs. Come join us!

The workshop provides free templates for performing risk assessments, a PHI tracking map, an equipment inventory, and finally, a complete Security Policy. We're going to work on them together during the workshop so that by the end of the workshop, you'll have a really good headstart on HIPAA compliance, even if you've never done anything beyond maybe a Privacy Policy. There are big sections covering HIPAA requirements for email and texting (based on empirical evidence) and also another big section on the advantage of integrated products (EHRs/EMRs, etc) vs standalone tools. Pricing goes up on July 28. If you can't make the in-person workshop, it will be available on-demand after Aug 11. Would love to have you!

Learn the policies you need to have in place to be HIPAA-compliant in this 5 ethics or core CE hour live webinar on 8/11. Sign up now!
