title: Implementing your privacy program: putting theory into practice.
abstract: Healthcare organizations across Canada are challenged with the new spectre of information privacy. While security and confidentiality have long been part of our culture in healthcare, privacy is a surprisingly new issue. With the introduction of privacy legislation and codes based on the CSA Model Code for the Protection of Personal Information (CSA Privacy Code), healthcare providers are subject to new obligations, and patients now enjoy new rights.
