Although there are no specific social media rules stated under HIPAA, healthcare organizations still run the risk of violating HIPAA if they’re not diligent on social media. Of course, it’s a HIPAA violation to post a patient’s individually identifiable health information without their written consent. Something as simple as a photo of a patient’s injury or an Instagram Reel demonstrating a new procedure could land your practice in hot water.
Hootsuite can help with your HIPAA social media strategy with simple approval workflows that ensure you never put patient privacy at risk. Thanks to our Proofpoint integration, you can also make sure every single post goes through a compliance check before it’s posted. This helps ensure that your organization’s social media content never includes information that could violate HIPAA or FTC regulations.
