FTC Grants 3-Month Delay for Enforcing Red Flags Rule
This free Webinar will help you prepare your practice, using KZA’s practical implementation tips!
The “Red Flags Rule” is a Federal Trade Commission (FTC) regulation that requires creditors and financial institutions to develop identity theft prevention programs. FTC has defined physician practices as “creditors” because physicians generally bill patients for their services, after those services are rendered. This is viewed by the FTC as a form of extending credit.
In an April 30 press release, the FTC extended the enforcement deadline to August 1, 2009. Practices now have an additional 90 days to develop and implement written identity theft prevention programs.
Watch the Webinar - featuring KZA associate Cheyenne Brinson, CPA, and sponsored by Solveras Payment Solutions - which includes implementation checklists and policy samples you can customize for your practice – saving you time and money!
