For example, this article caught my attention: http://www.wileyrein.com/publications.cfm?sp=articles <http://www.wileyrein.com/publications.cfm?sp=articles&id=8628> &id=8628 Many of us besides providing fixed wireless connectivity services to our customers, also provide hosting, email and other IT services, so I figure this is probably a concern for many of us. I am wondering if there is a lawyer or law firm serving the WISPA community that might be available to provide some guidance as to the true extent of liability a service provider has when contracted as a Business Associate by a healthcare industry customer, in a variety of situations. We have some specific questions, so if preferred, you can share your contact information with me off list and I can engage you directly. My direct email is agre...@webjogger.net <mailto:agre...@webjogger.net> . Thanks!
