Does the Privacy Office position have to be a full-time job?
No. All covered entities must designate a privacy official who is responsible for the development and implementation of privacy policies and procedures, as well as a contact person who is responsible for receiving privacy-related complaints and providing additional information about privacy practices and procedures. This position can be a full-time job, or these responsibilities can be combined with other duties, given to someone who is already an employee as long as there is one point of accountability for your organization’s policies and procedures and compliance with the HIPAA Privacy regulation.
