(Recorded Webinar) Part I - Application in the Health Center Setting

This course has been closed for new enrollments. If you are interested in this topic we will be reprising this series beginning August 20, 2020. To purchase that series, click here.

In developing substance use disorder services in response to the opioid epidemic, many health centers are uncertain whether they must comply with the federal substance use disorder confidentiality regulations at 42 CFR Part 2 (“Part 2”). This uncertainty occurs because whether Part 2 applies depends entirely upon how a health center provides substance use disorder services and whether they have received Part 2 protected records from another organization.

Health centers must regularly review their model for providing substance use disorder services to determine whether (and where in their health center) Part 2 applies.

In this first webinar, FTLF attorneys will:

  • Guide health centers through the process of determining whether Part 2 applies to their entire health center or to certain sites, teams, or employees;
  • Discuss when health centers may be a “lawful holder” of Part 2 records; and
  • Dispel the top myths about Part 2 compliance.

Certificates of Attendance: We verify attendance upon completion of a webinar (live or recorded version) and will only issue certificates in the name of the account holder enrolled in the course. If you need to document attendance for someone other than the account holder, we provide blank Certificates of Attendance for a supervisor to sign and certify that a different individual viewed the course. 

Group Attendance: Due to the online nature of webinars, we cannot verify participation by more than one person. For groups, we provide an attendance record form and blank Certificates of Attendance to record attendance at a group viewing session and document each individual's participation. We recommend that a supervisor or colleague sign the certificate to certify attendance.
